    NEWSFLASH	Hospitals across the country are reporting record numbers 
    of stress and high blood pressure cases...  investigation reveals the 
    cause to be an innocent post on the Miata net with the line...
    	Owning a Gun is a Right.  Driving a Car is a Privilege.
    
    	Whoooooo- Doggie!  I apologize PROFUSELY for ruining so many 
    people's days.  I wanted to post something on the net, to help in the 
    recovery of those whose blood pressure sky-rocketed, but didn't write 
    (judging from those hordes who _did_ write, it's probably legion).
    
    	What I wrote was not an opinion.  It was just a statement of fact, 
    currently in America.  Kind of poking at the reckless driving issue.
    
    	But I must say, we Miateers are certainly a polite bunch.  All of 
    the messages I got, even the more heated ones, were unfailingly polite, 
    and we've had some fun discussions about American Society offline.  
    
    	Oh, and Jeannie...  Joshua had to point out that I'd misspelled 
    "Priviledge".  Where's your ruler?
    
    
    MIATA CONTENT ON DASH-CARE
    	Alan, I don't put any of the gunky cleaners on my dash and it looks 
    nice 'n black.  I just clean-rinse-clean-rinse-clean-rinse-rinse-rinse 
    with Simple Green and water.  All that cleaning gets the dust outa the 
    little contours.
