I'm not opposed to doing things right. I'm opposed to every
Tom, Dick and Harry trying to APPEAR that they care just
for political gain. Perhaps I just hate election years. I certainly
hate big government. I try to limit my 'hate' to just that. :-]
My '79 Ferrari has no emissions gear on it at all. It passed
Texas emissions testing with flying colors. Then again, it does
not have a 'typical' engine. It also gets driven a couple of
hours a month. I have never driven the Midget more than
30 minutes at a time. I do love building engines though. I
probably pollute more with degreasers than with engines!!!
