 I never realized, that oneliner would have me looking for nearly a 
week ,and still on going, as I am talking with another who knows
Harry Corlett  <his name> and most of the folks I am trying to
find lived close by, but pretty hard for me up here, and last names
are not coming.

Your revolving drum is interesting, as I seem to remember that one 
too from PM.  At the start of the test, I noted the carburetor
operated like a pig before it warmed up.  Nothing exciting, only after
the trip and measuring that was better, then my 4 slapper or 6 slapper
and well better then expected from the motor used, which was a V8 455
GM.

Yeah today...what is a carburetor?

I have seen those TV commercials about 100mpg ...too!   They still
rattle in my head like Progue and the alternative fuels of Nazi Germany.

> So, you're going to leave us hanging eh? Say hello to my leetle friend!

Yeah ... I thought it was an easy task via Mike, to re-connect with 
the other two people in Toronto, but he hasn't seen or heard of them
for, or since 1980s too ... and yeah.... the search goes on, and
NO I don't need you leetie friend... you need him for the Bennies.

You really have no idea, what I have created for myself over all
this.  Harry Corlett VE3EX has caused a real problem for me, and
also Mike and others I asked.   Mike has added to it, now with 
some of his own, and he wonders now as to what I asked him, and
it deepens.  Apparently, as Mike puts it, Harry also had patents
out there for his engineering in the automotive area.

Now your little pal is running in circles in overload, as having joined
us, and wants to self-destruct or self exterminate exterminate...but
we want him to stick it out for the robots, and the flowers < 7plus>
and SWPC disasters...aaah mmmm.... let us bow our heads <snicker>.

PS: NO Ian G0TEZ ... I am going to have to give up the search as I have
    no more leads ... other then asking the robots to look...but then
    they get trigger happy ....
 
ttfn ...again   Peter
