I've worked on exactly those import/regulator certs between major manufs. and the US, that included parts made in China, South Korea and Japan. That's what this is about now, not the recipe. And that's why AM is in CYA mode.

All you have to do is figure out which compound you can leave out that will also reduce your costs and you're good to go.

What I don't get at all is why RB can have such a woodie for animated gifs, but he won't make one as his avatar...that's just half way.

...too easy :)

I guess we now have to say 'usually on the inside' :)

When my time machine is delivered, he's on my list of people I'd like to have a chat with in the past :)

5 TVs running, and thanks to the local Fox feed, it was crap for that.

One hand...up high...

I trust Toyota will find a way to make them boring...
