Hello,
For the 4th of July I will have the M1009 in the local town parade, and
possibly the M211, maybe with a water buffalo. Its not toally painted yet,
but I might throw it in anyway. Might have our V-8 Powered go-kart in again
also.
About the canibal stuff: I am a bit sick of hearing the disagreements over
it. I think we can all agree in an ideal world, it would work like Ida has
said, and maybe in some places it does work. But unfortunately its not an
ideal world, and when the budget is limited, and with no other options, it
happens. It has happened to me at my IT job. Budget was low, something
needed fixed, I took a broken computer and it became a parts computer.
Caleb
