Pugs,

  I couldn't agree more.  In fact, I've said it before (maybe not on this 
list) and I'll say it again 

  I've had many questions looking for a "good" mechanic in some geographical
area.  My reply is:

  "Go into the bathroom, look in the mirror - that is the only mechanic that
will give a damn.  If you don't like what you see, you need to get a new
hobby."
