Group,
    This doesn't come under the heading of engine building, but several years 
ago my wife (still the same one after 35 years) took a trip to Norway to 
visit relatives and her "roots".
    While she was gone I moved the 1915 Indian Twin Engine (122cc) Motocycle 
into the family room as a "tongue-in-cheek" trial gesture. The cycle was 
under restoration (and still is) but was assembled, painted and a "roller".
    When she returned nothing much was said, so it stayed there for probably 
8 years until we sold the house and moved.
    In the new house, suggestions that we include it in the decor were met 
with an icy stare and a "harumph" tone of voice.............Ardun Doug King
