Here! <raises hand>

I'm going through a minor crisis as my '92 is about to turn 150,000
miles. I suppose I'll celebrate with an oil change..... <G>

I'm here...although with all the snow on the ground, I don't think Dino will
be out stretching his legs for a while.

Following up my own post since I forgot to mention the little guy's
name is Rocket J. Squirrel (despite the Hesketh sticker on the back
depicting their teddy-bear-in-a-helmet-holding-a-Union-Jack mascot).

I'm still around and still driving the '04 even though today we had 4"
of snow by the time I woke up and sleet and freezing rain on and off
all day. Yuck!

Took her in for state inspection 2 weeks ago and they complained that
I took such good care of her, they weren't able to sell me any parts.

Default Headcount / Attendance

I'm stopping in to see what's up pretty regularly... and have had the top
down for most of the last two weeks. OK... I left it up this morning because
it was about 42 when I left the house. :-) Chris is a nice guy - I hope he
gets his tech issues settled.

Still here, more as a speedreader, rather than lurker.
Hard to beat Miata.net as a resource. The moderators actually work
over there, unlike most "Forums"

Still here in SE PA.
2006 Galaxy Grey GT 6AT just had state inspection in light snow on
Tuesday.
Son still has my old mostly white '93 C pkg - now over 220k miles.
It tried to go to work early yesterday morning (3:30 AM), but turned
back because of icy roads even with 4 Arctic Ice tires.

That is where the monster hides. If Leon was there then he isn't any more...
