    Bruno Beam decided to add:
    That's why they last twice as long as other marque's - they don't rust away
    in 5 years...

    Mate, the '87 Ford Faultcan just got a yellow sticker & sure ain't worth
    attempting to relicense. I bought a 1980 Volvo 2 weeks ago - it has a
    teaspoon of rust under 1 window after 24 years, you can still lock all the
    doors, steers straight with no play, bonnet doesn't fall on your head,
    doesn't squeak or rattle, has seats instead of plastic picnic chairs. It
    really feels like it's just run in. I just can't believe the shit cars I
    have owned all these years while there where Volvos.

    That's what I thought about Alfa Romeos, but it proved me wrong as I woke up
    one morning and there was nothing left but a pile of rust.

  6. Ah - you're the troll who posted on alt.autos.acura that Acuras are infested
    with spiders. Do you have *any* valid purpose in life?

    I've occasionally wondered what goes through the mind of a troll, they don't
    seem to have any specific targets, just randomly pick a few newsgroups. It'd
    be interesting to meet a typical usenet troll, are they a bored 5 year old,
    a drunk 15 year old, or a nerdy overweight 37 year old living in their
    parents basement playing D&D?

    This wasn't so bad. To find out more about a poster, however, you can always
    check out the header for hopefully more information. In this case, the
    header looks like this:

    So, if it was a really abusive troll, a mail could be sent to
    and that account would be warned or killed. But,
    since the poster has a free YAHOO address
    () he could simply create a new account
    at google using a new yahoo address. BTW, the extension "br" is for Brazil,
    which indicates the poster is probably from Brazil, since he prefers to sign
    up for free email via the Brazilian branch of Yahoo.

    So........... because his email address includes "joystick", I suspect: The
    sender is a 15 year old brat son of a wealthy Brazilian sending messages
    from his bedroom, and his Dad said something about the plastic on his new
    car. His son overheard this remark, and he is now warning the world.

    I guess :)

    I have been watching this child for a while now. He shows up about once a
    month under a different name and posts some inane low level dreck that a
    moron would be ashamed of. He has no imagination whatsoever.
    On the other hand Google search turns op 588 posts between Dec. 11 and Dec.
    14 That is quite some output. I am starting to suspect a artificial
    stupidity.
