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?
