He doesn't work for Ford. He works in the oil refinery business. I would guess at the Deer Park Refinery for SOPUS ( Shell Oil Products USA)

It's interesting to me when someone says "he has proven to all of us..." It never sounds quite right. Then I am instructed to "leave it alone," like it is top secret.

I read many of labnerd's posts. His depth of knowledge is amazing.

It must be that Labnerd is like the elusive " BIGFOOT " we know he's there.We see his tracks,but the harder you search,you never see him. You always find some evidence,but never see him. LOL

glad they are fixing the problem. too bad it's over 3 weeks. when i spit a spark plug out of one of my heads (2002 Lightning), the top mechanic was able to have the head replaced without corporate involved. about 3 days is all it took. not a scratch. everything put back in it's place. and if you've ever seen my truck, you would think it's a miracle. was well worth a bottle of Patron.

The Patron is an awesome thank you too. I do service work and that kind of tip is better than cash. Don't get me wrong, cash is cool, but that is cool and thoughtful

Because everyone that is on here frequently knows that he's very knowledgeable and doesn't talk out of his butt about things on which he merely speculates. He talks and shares only about things he knows like the back of his hand. He doesn't use this site for the social aspects, he uses it to share knowledge and inform. That's my opinion at least.

What you intend to say is that you think he is knowledgeable--you can not speak for everyone, but you and possibly many others think he is. Some people that you might think are talking out "his butt" while they "speculate" may be speculating correctly. I do agree that all of this is your opinion which is difficult to respect because of the "butt" comments. I don't think you want to compare resumes with me. "Let it lie."

Well it won't let me say ***, so butt it is. I could've said lying instead.

But yeah, you finally want to listen to advise told to you days ago, sounds good



Sounds like we may have another RI on our hands if he wants to talk resumes!

Just quit quoting him, if you do that I have to see the nonsense he keeps spewing. Now all I see is "This user is on your Ignore List" and I'm immune to his stupidity.

I'm going to have to at least cut it down to one thread, instead of all 46 of them. It's too much work haha

Go to your user cp and there's a place to type in the name of a user whose stupidity you can not tolerate any more. Fixes the problem right up. The best way to kill a troll is to starve one.

EDIT: this is the first time I've resorted to it myself.

I'm closing this one as that seems to be what the OP desires. Several of you have derailed thread after thread and will not keep your posts on the thread subject. If it happens again, we will hand out some vacations. You will not ruin this site because you don't like someone and can't control your petty disagreements and childish behavior.
