For all those that asked me how we got off on sheep, and the Modern American
Man, I have forwarded this. I didn't realize that is was sent just to me and
not the net. My apologies to Tom Martin in NZ. We were just having a little
Yank fun. You know that we can never be taken seriously, don't you? 

I'm not sure what the "ex-pat POM" comment refers to, but when I find out I
will draft a suitable response. Help me out here guys. Were we insulted? 

Do Lucas (and other) starters turn backwards in the Southern hemispere?

My experience with people who rubbish Lucas Starters is that
invariably their ability to build an engine that starts is such that
even Delco would cringe at the cranking duration of their
starting attempts. A set of brushes and a coat of paint doesn't
constitute an overhaul.

Still, these were made when men were men and women were
glad of it, so to assume that Modern American Man could cope
could be asking a lot, especially when given moral support by
ex-pat Poms who should know better!
