Hello to Rick v 100
and
Doug G in Oz
Doug and Rick, thanks for your replies.
I think we need to educate our state and federal politicians
before the likes of Hilary and Senator Levin
(or was it Sen. Levy)
try again to slip in another, Demil Bill
Doug, It's funny that you mention about the
possibility of missing posts in Mil-Veh
I not sure , but I have not noticed any of this in
the Mil-Veh site.
At times I become too busy to read through each reply
so I may have missed one??? If that's not the case, then
who knows ???
Perhaps that Albert Lyon guy was a moderator
after all, and removed every post that did not suit him !
It would be interesting to go back several days, and see if the guys
that told Albert Lyon... where to stick his head... also, have
not had any other posts go through as well !
Rob...HHHhhhmmmnn
Perhaps I will re post once more. just to see if there is
ANY response?
