    Body is saying: "Chill Baby." Great insight into the man's notes. Heady stuff for sure. The thought of an A.W.D. Hill climb ch***is clouds my mind. Hell, it could be a log splitter for all I know. Fun stuff fo sho. Get Well.

    I was just looking at the fuel recipes, again. The first one looks like Tom was trying to make his own Trinitrotoluene (TNT!). What in the world was he going to do with it? I doubt it would contribute to the reliability or longevity of an engine! :)
