may I (as a general note and not pointing fingers at anyone) strongly suggest that the headers for such postings may be chosen a bit more subtle - i.e. containing more facts that do not cause our hearts to stop.... and it's old news - the incident happened back in fall 2006...

:roll:

Subtly stated on a sensitive issue, Martin. I concur.

Jesse as you are new to WIX, may I suggest adding to the title so that it reads Warbird Gear Problem, or similar. In the past headings have hit readers pretty hard until we find it is a no injury or less serious event.

My sincerest appologies, I did not mean to alarm anyone and this will not happen again.

Once again, terribly sorry. :oops:

Jesse,

If you click on edit post or something you can change the title if you want.

It says at the bottom that I can NOT edit posts. If I could I would and actually, can I request that this post be removed since it is old news and is causing more grief than good.

Next thing you know I will be blamed for Global Warming! Which I probably had a hand in with all the Drag Racing burnouts!

Sorry once again!
