This should go to the Web Master, but I can’t find where to send to her/him. Besides, you guys know about everything else in addition to cars. When a posting here has a photo attached (e.g., the current “What is it?” thread), I can’t get a good enlarged version of the photo. If I download the jpg…

Art1966…thanks for the feedback. There could be some regular or lurker who could answer most, if not all of your questions. I have had several different careers in my life because I’m not the type to be “pigeon-holed” in a particular career field. The Air Force loves people like that so I was very s…
