I'll bet it was fun cross posting this to so many groups.

Not really. It increased the possibility that I'd get a useful reply or two,
but only a tiny percentage of people ever have anything worthwhile. So,
if you're going to ask a question you better put it out to as many of what
you hope to be potential sources as possible. For example: I posted to
5 groups, about 15 people made replies that I saw, only 4 of those 15+/-
made an attempt to help me out, and only about 2 or 3 wrote anything
that could be of any help. So it's not really "fun" to cross post, it just
increases your number of very slim chances of getting anything worthwhile
out of people in these news groups. Here's something I have noticed has
been the case *every!* time, and I was expecting "you" before I even
made the post: People who bitch about cross posting *never* have
anything of value to share. Did you know that?

If you were serious, you would have posted this to an automotive group in
the first place troll. I won't give you my advise for free. Here's to you,
a nice long walk on a cold rainy night.
