Let's see.  Detroit is EDT, right?  Since I don't believe any of these wines are
going to complement eggs and bacon I'll comment on the Z drive.

YES!!!  I Wanna Race One.  Oops, too early in the morning to yell...  please,
may I have a turn?

On another note, the Z Owners Of Northern California (ZONC) is displaying a
production 350 Z @ the Blackhawk Museum on Sunday beginning @ 10:00 -
http://www.zonc.org/Calendar/Blackhawk-Flyer-2002.html.

Mr. "K", 93 years old now, will be here from Japan to sign memorabilia and NISMO
may actually have something to say about their aftermarket plans.

Come on out.
