Hmmm, I always wonder about that Bryan as I grew up in Columbus and we always
heard as kids that "Columbus was a top 5 target" for a ruskie nuke as we have
the supersecret Battelle institutute that does govt projects/research and god
knows what else.
Urban legends; maybe that is just a human condition to create a rumor? maybe
Ohio was going to be wiped out first.
anyone else grow up in another "Top 10 Nuke Me" city? feel free to go offlist.

Off topic...It's funny you should mention that. I grew up in Canton, OH, and
the Timken plant was the reason Canton was in the top 10 of targets the
Russians would have wiped off the map if push came to shove. Probably not
nearly as trouble by the time I was born, but it was a well-known
fact.-Bryan--- On Sun, 8/3/08, Bob Bundy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I think with the Timken wheel bearings it was a material issue. 8 identical
bearings on a GTX two per corner I replaced them all with Timken didn't look at
them other than Timken was stamped on them I had two failures and I got to
looking closer. The two that failed on different corners were stamped Timken
Mexico. Two were stamped Timken Australia and the other 4 were stamped Timken
Japan. They all came out of boxes labeled Timken USA but its really getting so
nothing gets made in the USA any more.
