Blew the head gasket on my 3 again.  Last time was at the end of last year's 
driving season, so really only have a thousand miles on the replacement.

This time I plan to take the head in to the machine shop to have it checked for 
warpage and cracks.  

Also, checking archives I came across the thread about (Marly?) who sells head 
gaskets with an o-ring added, that Randall mentioned solved his head gasket 
problems (until his car was wrecked a couple of years ago).

Is Marly still around, and anybody have his address or one to find a similar 
head gasket?
