    No offense taken. Thank you Jamie for the correction.

    Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.

    I'm pretty sure a "manual trannie" means something else out here.

    Enjoying the travelog, Steve.

    I am "out here." And I'm not sure what a manual trannie is in San Fransisco, but in the great state of Washington, it means a clutch and anywhere from three to six gears that you shift to make the change the speed or the power of the car with.

    Victoria,

    I assume that because you are vague about how many gears "three to six" that the cars are English with a variable number of gears actually functioning each day?

    Sorry I just had to after thinking about shifting in my sister's father-in-law's TR-6

    Not exactly the smoothest gearbox I have ever experienced!

    Cheers

    And that's why I ride motorcycles. Though I must say, while I am restyling my vintage Harley-Davidson Sportster into a screaming British-style cafe racer I've been riding around on the other motorcycle in the family, which has an automatic transmission (but no stereo or cruise control...).

    I get a little scared when I hear about people who aren't completely engaged in the process of piloting 1000 kilogrammes of hurtling deadly metal...

    So, Steve -- didja ever look over at Bobbie and say (as my father did in Scotland), "Well, Dear, you're in the driver's seat."

    Yup, that's one of the wizard's own kilts and I think you could hide several small appliances in the stealth pockets in that thing!
