How big of a mess is fishing the new cable up to the cluster and
hooking it to the transmission?

Maybe not so bad on a 107.

My recent research revealed Shoe Goo does _not_ recommend
denatured alcohol for cleaning. No, I don't know why. So I
have been using their suggestion to use acetone.
Good to know. I even have the stuff, but I'd have had to
go outside to get it.

Maybe, if one waits too long but more likely it just becomes an
expensive repair.
The condos across the way from my office have a sort of garden area in
the middle with the condo units around the outside ring.
The garden area is raised up one level and the parking garage is under

I worry what happens when green roofs age into forests full of heavy,
mature trees. Does a building collapse under the weight of all that lumber?

Chicago is among the top (if not the top) cities with green roofs.
