Hi,
I'm more of a lurker here being way too busy with a dry and boring
professional life that is slowly leveraging me out of debt to let myself
get too enmeshed in online discussions, however, <LECTURE> I think that
'Dakota' is, I am fairly sure, a branch of the Sioux nation. I recall
that there is the Lakota Sioux and the Dakota Sioux. Either that or they
are one and the same and some historian made a translation error. But I
think the first is correct.
</LECTURE>

And yes, I own a Dak! Second one!
First was a '97 CC SLT V6 that a stranger-in-a-big-hurry (in his buddy's
4.0L Jeep, as it turns out) took the liberty of colliding with and
totalling and my current Dak is an '00 4.7L CC auto, electric everthing,
o yeah.

Rgds,
Marty Galyean
