Re: Dolby
	As Andy mentioned, if the type is not stated there is generally Dolby B
or *no* Dolby. The various types of Dolby (A,B,C) are variances of noise
compression ratios and frequency ranges. For what it's worth, with the top down
or windows open, you won't notice the difference! Just make sure you use good
recording tape.
 
Re: Consumer Reports and other Q's
	Not to be a butthead, but...the Comsumer Reports fee is only $11. Also
remember that the dealer generally gets 5-10% off their cost when they pay
their bills on time. The red interior is the limited edition, but most of the
responses to it here and in Miataville are leaning towards a lack of enthusiasm
in the color scheme. So, the red may be around for a while (kind of like the
yellow was here in the midwest). The tan interior is a standard option now.
 
Re: my query to an Indy Miata
	Anyone have a spare body? John Keating - maybe this could be a Balto
based project car!? I could use my connections at the dealerships in the DC
area to support the cause. :-)
 
Re: my problems with the dealer
	They could care less that I'm an active member of the local, national,
Internet, and CompuServe groups. Mainly because there are only two active Miata
club people in Madison (more owners, they're just oblivious to our cause - we
have tried to recruit them). I'm also afraid that a showing of the club would
work against my cause and act as a publicity stunt for the dealer. They are the
only dealer in this area without having to go to Milwaukee (90 minutes away).
Oh well.
