Sammy (who I thought I was going to name Heinrich, but he's already used to Sammy and it suits his laid back temperment)...we picked him up in Tulsa this weekend. Great dog, but gets car sick...at least for now. Wagons are definitely better for dogs! Looks like Steffen-Haus has some really nice dogs. I noticed they are in Columbus, WI...are you near there? My in-laws are dairy farmers outside Lodi (near Madison) who we visit occassionally. If you're close by there, I'd love to meet you, your dog and see your cars. Chris

Oddly after my mother passed away we discovered in the paperwork that my grandmother was from Germany, completely covered up. Even today my mother's sister who's 96 wrote up the family history say her mother was from so and so (can't recall), Austria. My wife who's parent come from Germany did point out (to no avail) that the town so and so actually was in Germany... Well at least they put the town in, us younger folks can figure out reality. This of course does explain some of my odd accent at times.

As a quick test, you can unplug the connector at the GP relay, and measure the resistance of each plug. It's not a perfect test, but can identify any that are completely burned out or in bad condition. Allan -- 1983 300D 1966 230
