I like the DML as is. I don't see any changes that would improve it. It is
what it is. How much fun would it be if it were all tech? How usefull would
the "no tech" site be? I smoke, pick my nose,use a mac and drive a slushbox;
And as long as you're on one end of a phone line and I'm on the other,
there's no way a flame should bother anyone.

P.S. I thought of a positive change. Jon should set up a "Mopar/DML beta
testing page" where we could volunteer to beta test various mopar
performance products. I volunteer to test any blower they come up with.
