Snubbed

["Vincenti, Ross" <Ross.Vincenti@transamerica.com>]

Perhaps I'm just a bit cynical now that I am a middle aged guy, but it 
seems to me that maybe all of us list members have set our expectations a 
little to high.  It appears that not everyone who drives an LBC is as 
devoted to the Triumph (or even MG, Lotus, Jag, take your pick, etc.) 
marquee as we are devoted, nor do they see anything special about the fact 
that they are driving a piece of history.  I wish it were not true, but I, 
too, have experienced the "snub" from others in LBCs. (sigh)  When it 
happens I usually try to convince myself that the other driver was busy 
fiddling with a Lucas electrical fire under the dash, or perhaps a bug flew
into his eye temporarily blinding him or that he was preoccupied by a 
strange grinding noise emanating from the gearbox.  You know, the things 
that we are all usually preoccupied with......  ;^ )
