Who was it who mentioned Fram oil filters and dropping oil pressure?

Then you should be changing your oil every 100 miles. It will have the
same benefit on the longevity of the engine versus changing the oil
every 1000 miles, 3000 miles, or 5000 miles--no effect at all. But it'll
make you feel better.

"Recreational Oil Changing

The term "recreational oil changer" was coined to define people that
change their oil far more than necessary because they actually enjoy
doing it. It's easy to understand the psychology behind the recreational
oil changing. It's the visceral feel of the tools, the victory when that
old oil filter breaks free, the hot dark oil pouring out, the joy of
oiling of the gasket on the new filter, that new copper or fiber gasket
on the drain plug, the clean clear oil going in, and the sense of
accomplishment when you start the car, the oil pressure light comes on
for a moment, then goes out. For $8-10 in oil and parts, it's pretty
cheap entertainment, but if people would be content to do it only when
it provides some benefit to the vehicle it would be better."
