How are you doing?
Are you gainfully employed?
Congratulations. Perhaps with a few more life achievements, you can afford to put spaces after your commas. I kid, i kid.

Unfortunately when copy and pasting a few paragraphs of text from an older program of Word or other WP the forum software can fail to reassemble the paragraph breaks correctly.

It’s my guess that this is what caused the odd format in Jcity’s post.
Actually my dear,your comment is somewhat accurate.In my mind,online
postings,blogs etc are not literary works in need of a editor's perusal.
One expresses his or hers opinions in a fashion of their choice.One of
the most profound works(IMO)of the 20th Century was Kerouac's
On The Road.The entire book was ONE paragraph!Go figure...There
is no grade expected from the teacher.If this was so,no one would text.
Saying that,I tend to write as I speak.Otherwise in a "converstional"
mode.My apologies for mentioning my educational background.For what
its worth,I've got a degree in English lit and economics.But this is not
the point.This topic and comments have opened up an area that I feel
is most important.The real purpose and value of this and other forums.
Its to,give&take.Give your knowledge to help out the other guy.Take or
learn things that you did not know.How often do you read comments
from members just giving a pro or con but not giving input on "what to do".
Perhaps many do not know,what to do?The answer to everyone's question
exits somewhere in this forum's files or its members.

No problem driving in MM everyday. Most do it to hear their exhaust better.

The only issue is you will burn gas faster due to the higher revs and don't downshift from 2-1 it's rough.
