     I'm glad that we have all decided to treat people that speak other
languages as real human beings with feelings.   Now will everybody stop
picking on me for driving an automatic Miata?  IT WASN"T MY CHOICE!

     I swear that when I find the perfect "Elusive Yellow Miata",  It will
DEFINITELY have a 5-speed!

     All I did was ask a simple question, and I get hammered for owning an
automatic.  Hey, I know what tranny goes in a "true sports car".  So my Miata
isn't a true sports car, SO WHAT.  I own four more cars that definitely fit
right in to the definition of "TSC".   You people (the two who spammed me, in
particular)  are gonna lose sleep because I don't have a true sports car??
 Too friggin' bad!   Maybe next y'all can flame me for coming in through AOL.
 Do I have to explain that too?? 

     WHAT IF I was handicapped and unable to use a clutch/shifter,  should I
be denied the pleasure of owning a Miata?  Would you like to come and try to
take it away from me?  Think Not, assholes. (again, this only directed at the
persons who initiated this)  Perhaps crawling back under your rock would be a
better choice, for you are no match for me or the fine people that can be
found on this list.

     You have to excuse me because I have never been treated like this by
anyone on this list (or any other) before.  What they did  went beyond good
natured ribbing.

grill/mouth?
