YES! I second that! Thumbs up to James. He's an enthusiast, works a lot on
  his own car, and contributes a lot to this list. I'm even sure that the
  majority of his spelling "mistakes" are due to the fact that he writes
  very quickly and does not re-check what he wrote. Who cares? As long as we
  understand what he means. The contributions are what counts.

So, where are my mistakes? I'm a foreigner and my English is certainly not
  perfect. Should I exit this list? Should we have an exam for subscribing
  to this list?

Vel tone, James!

Romano
