Ted, I gave you one.........the S. Baptist boycott of Disney World because they did not like the people Disney World allowed in the park. If you don't think that's imposing one's will, well then, you are living in la la land. Since I'm not a Southern Baptist, I suppose I should feel "imposed upon" by the Southern Baptist church. Funny thing is, the only "pressure" to cancel my plans for going to Disneyland next month is the increase in ticket prices. But I'm sure that's the fault of those silly Southern Baptists ...

Ted, update on Beamer reliability problems: Yesterday the engine started rumbling, and the power felt diminished. Sure enough, the idiot light came on. Apparently one of the cylinder's ignition coils (?) has burned out and wasn't firing. At the same time, two other coils are worn and the voltage is half what it should be, so those were also failures waiting to happen. Repair cost will be over $350. And this is just a few hundred miles past the 50K mile warranty. Cute. Tenchusatsu
