Well, this sounds like a good time! I'm with Howard - in need of oil. 
I've been looking at the local "auto parts" stores. I asked about the 
Castrol for Classic Cars, which they didn't have, and was told; "We 
sell/stock what we are sent." Not much help.  Larry, will you take 
"call in questions?" Good, here's mine - I asked this awhile back but 
am still wondering. Our gear boxes call for motor oil as the lube. 
Does it make any difference in a gear box longevity that the ZDDP has 
been removed from the oil?

Coffee and doughnuts? Hmmm. I'll bet you guys have a coffee maker 
like the one that is the subject of the Dilbert cartoon for yesterday 
and today!  www.dilbert.com.
