From: "Ira Chandler" To: Subject: I HATE YOUR SITE! Date: Sat, 1 Apr 2006 11:24:04 -0500 I stumbled on your site and when I recovered, hours had passed and I do not know where they went. This is the most comprehensive collection of information on off-road vehicles I have ever seen. If I had no discipline, I would be lost for days in your links. I work very hard to keep focused on MY work and you throw this in my face to tempt me to abandon all reason and click endlessly on one interesting topic after another. You should be ashamed. It is people like you who are contributing to the downfall of our society by reducing productivity. You know that these links are unavoidably interesting and will keep a person occupied for days, but you post them anyway... This site is as bad as narcotic addiction. Thank you for all of your work. By the way, we are producing the Scorpion vehicle http://MyScorpion.com and you are welcome to add that to your exhaustive list!

This is, after 10 years web-presence, the best written compliment I ever got....:))))))) Asking permission to put your exclamation online Sir!....:)) > By the way, we are producing the Scorpion vehicle http://MyScorpion.com and > you are welcome to add that to your exhaustive list! Done! > > Ira Chandler > Ground Force Corporation > PS: there should be portal axles under that vehicle of course....;)) (but please do not cannibalize any further complete/intact Volvo C3- series, too many have been sacrificed already!....;(( (pictures of next Swedish military auctions suggest that there will be a pile of axles included as well, so better use those, and wait for them to filter through in the US market....;)) PPS: did you know that there is a 3-axle triple-airbag offroad camper- trailer made in Australia?....:)) (their more common 2-axle version uses a regular tandem bogie suspension, but you can't do that with 3 axles) -- Bye, Willem-Jan Markerink The desire to understand is sometimes far less intelligent than the inability to understand [note: 'a-one' & 'en-el'!]
