Stephen,

I now realize my mistake. I forgot to look at the posting date on some
of those, so I just figured they wanted some advice right now, and not
9 years ago. Since I type slowly, I just cut and pasted them. In
replying, I was simply trying to return the favor, since a few years
ago I got some really good help about a car purchase, from a newsgroup.
I thought it was time to help and participate instead of being a user.
Sorry to all for my mistake and I will try to notice the posting dates
in the future.

Russ
