Hi Barber,

I often think sometimes of an air filter comparison between that of one on an engine on a highway .............. & that of one in an almost immaculate small office occupied by one employee, with one entrance door, no visitors, all business conducted with clients by phone, no children, no toys nor bikes, no food, no kitchen, where the one (1) employee walks 12 feet on concrete from his car to his office front door.

The single entrance door is opened only to enter & exit the office twice a day & the windows stay shut.

And then the employee vacuum cleans his office floor periodically.

After one month, we check his office's air-condition filter ..... wow !!!!

We just cannot imagine why this filter looks like an A/C filter that was used as a flag, strapped to a flag staff, & secured to the back of Lawrence of Arabia's camel while he was crossing the Sahara Dessert for thirty days while traveling through a blinding 70 mph sand storm.

I cannot figure it out either -- don't feel surprised -- I think our Model A loves us all with or without an air filter.
