I've tried blindfolds, but unfortunately I can read braille when I'm with a woman.

Perhaps your blindfold suggestion would work well for those that look upon tires with too much scrutiny.

Ok , been reading this and will interject my opinion:
I love all vehicles.
I hate white walls.
I love all model A's.
I love ALL white tires on teen and pre teen vehicles.

Learned longggggg ago (age 5 or 6) not to give a shit what anyone thinks of me, my stuff or my opinion.

Some of you need a little thicker skin, and not take every bloody comment personally and to heart.

The unfortunate thing I've found with emails/forums, etc. is the reader can't always tell when you are being facetious, sarcastic, humorous, flippant or whatever unless you use the little smiley faced icons. You can make someone angry even though if you had said the same thing face-to-face they would have not taken offense to your remarks. There is no way of hearing the "inflection in your voice" with the written word.

And speaking of statistics, here are some statistical facts:
The average human has one breast and one testicle. ~Des McHale

98% of all statistics are made up. ~Author Unknown

Say you were standing with one foot in the oven and one foot in an ice bucket. According to the percentage people, you should be perfectly comfortable. ~Bobby Bragan, 1963

Statistics can be made to prove anything - even the truth. ~Author Unknown

Then there is the man who drowned crossing a stream with an average depth of six inches. ~W.I.E. Gates

I like your tagline 'Well, old Barney—he was goin’ some!" One of my favorite sayings is, "You can't believe everything you read on the internet - Abraham Lincoln".

As 5window pointed out, 93% of "communication" is lost when not talking face-to-face. In this case the remaining 7% more than adequately gets the point across.

You guys know you can have Green walls, Red walls, Yellow Walls etc now... right?

Some people avoid clubs BECAUSE of the judging they get even when not in shows. Same for forums.
