Don't blame the whole community for one person's, mine, comments. , Grudge's scam. You still seem injured from getting scammed. I posted so that other people in the community could avoid the scam, supposedly the very reason that you posted. We're on the same side. Posts like yours pop up every now and then and they're very helpful. What I posted in response shows people how to avoid the same thing happening to them. Sorry that you ended up paying but I could only remedy that part of your problem by sending you money. And that wouldn't make sense.

By the way, your web site seems to be dead. Just trying to help, honest.

That name looks familiar, from years back. I did a Google on his email, see below. Looks like he/she/it even does reptile scams. Anywhere that money can be wired, probably. Looks like the key is finding pictures that can be re-used. No offense, but you run an online business. You should have known. And why did you use Venmo? Don't they have recourse for scams. I thought that was the whole point of Paypal and other online payment companies. Besides anonymity, which in this case is not good. Share some details so we can learn how this happened and avoid it. Used to be the scams were a guy overseas in the military with a car in Las Vegas. Wire the money, and he'll ship the car for free. https://venmo.com/ Did you contact Venmo? - https://help.venmo.com/hc/en-us/articles/235171088-Cancel-Payment https://www.google.com/search?q=critchorpcomputer&rlz=1C1SQJL_enUS862US862&oq=critchorpcomputer&aqs=chrome..69i57&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 https://www.reptileforums.co.uk/forums/13377627-post1.html

You've talked to him? What's the back-story? He's not putting a ton of effort in to selling it. Might be one of the sparsest CL ads I've seen in a while.

He already did this. I quoted his post in the one right above yours. I've found 0.2 - 0.3 is pretty common.

Relativity came up n the early days of the pandemic. How bad is it compared to the common flu for example. The media still can't stop using death as the best measure though. Like when you read about a horrible accident and "they survived" implies that everything is okay. https://www.cnn.com/2020/11/18/health/covid-19-deaths-us-250k-trnd/index.html

Here's another Canada reference, relative to Thanksgiving.

The COVID ActNow page is going to need another shade of red. Two more states/territories turned since since Monday. Only six left.

Reminds me of the sponge. Test-worthy. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/fda-allows-1st-rapid-virus-032102075.html Lucira said it expects the test to cost $50

Lots of irony in this story. "diligence and dedication" but no common sense. The old guys sticking together. Just be tougher than the virus. Kick it to the curb. Grassley is 87 and McConnell is 78. https://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/news/politics/2020/11/18/chuck-grassley-coronavirus-covid-19-diagnosis-symptom-free/6339013002/ Grassley has not said where he believes he was exposed to the virus. He was most recently in the Senate on Monday, where he made remarks on the floor without a mask on and spoke with colleagues while wearing a mask. He also attended a meeting with Senate Republican leadership on Monday, which includes Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. McConnell addressed Grassley's diagnosis in remarks on the Senate floor Wednesday morning. He praised Grassley for setting the Senate record of 27 years without missing a single Senate vote and wished him well. "This show of diligence and dedication is remarkable by any measure. But because of who Sen. Grassley is, it hasn’t seemed remarkable at all," McConnell said of Grassley's record voting streak. "That incredible commitment to serving Iowans and working around the clock is just who our colleague is. That devotion is just his daily routine."

Here's another wedding story for sports fans (soccer/football). A national super star with all of the best testing and education available lets down a whole nation just by being dumb and selfish. But he is just a football player, not a rocket scientist. It must be the invisibility of the virus. Out of sight, out of mind. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8960067/Mo-Salah-slammed-ex-Egypt-striker-Mido-neglect-attending-brothers-wedding.html

Lessons from people who didn't listen. How to kill your grandparents. I hope they make it but if they don't, it will be a wedding to remember. https://www.wlwt.com/article/local-couple-shares-story-after-wedding-becomes-a-super-spreader-event/34694908 Due to the pandemic and to protect their guests, they cut their guest count from 200+ to 85. Eighty-three guests attended the wedding ceremony and reception. Two weeks later, 32 guests have tested positive, including the newlyweds and three of their grandparents. Two grandparents had to visit the emergency room due to severe symptoms. "Weddings are definitely scary right now. I didn't think that almost half of our wedding guests were gonna get sick," Mikayla Bishop said. "You're in the moment. You're having fun. You don't think about COVID anymore." The couple provided masks and hand sanitizer at the entrance to the venue but quickly found out that few guests took advantage of them. "My big moment honestly was right when the ceremony started and the doors opened and both my parents walked me down the aisle. The first thing I see is I see everyone's face. And that's when I realized wow. Nobody's wearing a mask," Mikayla Bishop said. "I'm walking down the aisle. We can't do anything now." "When I saw everyone not wearing masks I was just like, 'Oh, well I guess we're just gonna kinda go with it I guess,'" Anthony Bishop said.

I used to see Wangan references but not so much anymore. Don't know where those guys went. But the old stuff shows up on the Search engine. Might be some good stuff here. https://www.classiczcars.com/search/?q=wangan&quick=1

Could be the numbers of cars around, power, age of cars or just that people who like Z's aren't the same as people that like street racing. No offense intended but on the three forums I've browsed around the most over the years since I got my car most Z owners think that drifting and street racing is not a smart thing to do. Illegal, dangerous, senseless...dumb. Every now and then a racer/drifter will pop up on the forums but they don't get much positive feedback. Maybe try the drifting/racing forums. I can't even recall a drifter/street racer being on this forum within the last few years. Although Rush's Red Barchetta has been posted on the Saturday Night Music sub-forum. I used to "drift" my GTO when I was 16 and hooned all over the region I lived in. But for whatever reason as I got older I started to get more sensible. The Z's don't survive crashes very well either.

From what I've picked up they don't drift well unless you modify the steering to allow more range lock-to-lock. You can't get the wheel turned far enough to hold a drift.

Klein makes pretty good stuff and your lead test is about normal.

Which side did you check? Check the wire that feeds the link. Looks like a white one. And it connects via a plug that could be disconnected or corroded. Follow the path back to the 15.1 volts. The FSM is available here on the forum also. https://www.classiczcars.com/files/category/14-280zx/

I've been wondering also about how two vaccines with such high efficacy could be developed so quickly. And it's not clear if there are side effects. If you lower the bar to "no deaths" then passing is easy. Let's see who steps up to get the first shots. https://www.statnews.com/2020/11/16/modernas-covid-19-vaccine-is-strongly-effective-early-look-at-data-show/ What ever happened to the Russian vaccine? https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-03209-0

I wonder what the billionaires are spending their money on, besides sending large phallus-shaped objects to the moon. Here's someone from your general region of the country to be proud of. Look up... Send a letter to Nick Saban. He has money. Shame him with Dolly Parton's example. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2020/nov/17/dolly-parton-partly-funded-moderna-covid-vaccine-research https://sports.usatoday.com/ncaa/salaries/

You can run an extra ground wire also. I had a couple on my car. You don't know what's happening along the length of the wire whose end you are cleaning. Run a new wire, confirm good ground, see if the problem is fixed.

You should post up the dimensions. Looks like something a person could do with a vise and a drill. I had to find a friend with a welder for mine. Cost me a six-pack of good beer. One thing to be aware of is if the bushing/snubber is pressed too hard in to the top of the diff you can get diff whine in the cabin. I experimented with straps and clamps early on when I was working on clunk and had some pretty noisy experiences. Your middle initial isn't C is it?

I have definitely stopped saying anything humorous around other people. I think that a laugh probably projects more internal fluid out than a cough. And a good laugh is properly done with mouth wide open and elevated. I don't know why the various doctors don't mention this. So many fine details to avoiding spread that could make the other stuff easier.

Grab one, twist and pull. They'll probably slide right out. No press is required for installation. It's two bushings and the steel sleeve inside. I used washers to increase the effective length of the sleeve inside the bushing. That cut down on noise transfer by creating an air gap on the bushing ends. I don't think whoever designed the PU bushings really thought through the purpose and the reason for Nissan's original design. Nissan's design broke the noise transfer path to keep things quiet. The PU bushings are "racecar" bushings, designed to reduce any movement. Racecar people like noise. Many of the PU bushings weren't developed to make things better, they were developed because people would buy them. "Free market " principles say that those two things go together but reality shows that they often do not. Soapboxing...
