I just realized that I haven’t seen any recent posts & hope that all is well.

Yes, it has been nice not to see his intentional misspelling of words as an attempt at humor.

Sold his Beetle I understand so perhaps he is haunting a forum for another make of car. I actually do miss his posts and unique humor, he is I think fairly intelligent but disguises it well! 
I really would like to see him finish his Porsche.

Marks a smart guy, helped me out a lot when I had questions regarding my build. His advice always made sense so I listened to him..
Hope he's doing well and will be back when he feels like it. |

I miss Mark's posts, if you've ever tried to write nearly every word with an alternate spelling like he often does you'll grow to appreciate the work that went into his posts. Not only does he know his stuff, he's entertaining too.

I have to admit I grew to appreciate what he was doing, even when it annoyed the hell out of me.
He does know his shit when it comes to the internal combustion engine, no doubt.

He is the e.e. Cummings of the Samba, no doubt famous for diesels.
I am glad he is well.

X10, once you relaxed a bit, you could enjoy it and glean some good wisdom. I hope he returns soon! |

The thing about Mark is he answers pretty normally in the tech forums, he really only does his illiterate hick routine in OT.
I hope you're well, Mark, even though you bug the shit out of me in OT from a moderating perspective.

Gems and pearls of wisdom drowned in a sea of smart, interesting and fun wordplay. Makes it sorta like a treasure hunt. And drivel. And sarcasm, don't forget the sarcasm.
The Samba isn't the Samba without Mr. Tucker. |
