      I'm going to put my own spin on what I think DJ may done. Techno was always evolving, never finished. I'll see what I can do in that vein...

      Unfortunately or fortunately (depending on your point of view), Techno is basically a clean slate... not a shred of the hardware DJ installed remains,

        It was awesome meeting you! My family (mom especially) really enjoyed having y'all stay the night, and if one or both of you are in the area again, my house is open to you.

        I really enjoyed the thorough discussions of (among other things) biodiesel, women, and of course Festivas. Plus the shop manuals were a nice bonus. Thanks!

        I can't wait for Techno to be back in action and look forward to updates. It's great knowing that piece of FF.com history is in good hands now.

        PS... Did you beat your record of 24.5 hours on the way back?
        Tim, you and your mom were fantastic hosts! I cannot thank the two of you enough for your hospitality.

        No, I didn't beat my time. There were a string of accidents and road closures from Quantico, VA all the way to White Marsh, MD. It took me FOREVER to travel that last leg. 95 miles, should have taken 2 hours, took 4 1/2!!!

                    Sounds like you had quite the road trip, but glad to hear you got it safe and sound and can't wait to see pics and plans for the future

                    If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

                      I was wondering when you guys were going to let everybody know you were going to get the car. I thought you had picked it up back in September.
