sorry but that I confused you, shen. too many big words I now realize.

shen, I don't really believe that boat had a gas engine. really don't. never
did. I just found it amusing the author didn't know diesel engines don't have
spark plugs. I gather the you, shen, didn't know either unti Friday afternoon
sometime.

shen, it was **IRONY** from the very start. do you know what irony means?
If
so, why do you seem to not get it even after all these many days?


**IRONY** or not, as expected, as per usual, you are incapable of answering
any
question posed, regarding any subject.
Might I suggest that when you learn a new word, such as "irony", that you try
it out in a political NG where your degree of intelligence will match if not
exceed, those of the other respondents.
