Interesting conversation. Hopefully he will look at the vid (I sent him the link yesterday) and get the itch. One can only try.

OK, ok, ok. A truce is probably in order. You promise not to loosen my lugs and I promise that from this day forward I will stop peeing in your gas tank during the driver's meeting.
