From: TeriAnn Wakeman <twakeman@cruzers.com> Date: Fri, 29 May 98 08:50:31 -0700 Subject: Apology -no LR content I Apologize to all of you who have been offended by my e-mail writing style. I have recently received two pieces of feedback that have bothered me greatly. > TeriAnn: ; > Notwithstanding that you do often seem to come off as > a condecending know-it-all ; This one strikes me in the heart of my attempts to make friends over the internet. I have always felt that we are each on a journey through life which is hard enough as it is without each of us making it harder on each other. I have been trying to help others on the series Land Rover journey, sharing things I have learned in the hope of easing their journey a little. I apologize that I have worded my efforts in such a way as to be perceived as a "know-it-all". I have tried for a friendly bantering style but have evidently turned a number of people off and presented a negative image. I apologize for the negative feelings I have generated. It was not done intentionally. I look at myself as just another person trying to figure out how to survive in the world. Mostly I do not do it as well as I try to. Sorry. Even growing up, my sister always said that I always seemed to act like I was better than others and condescending. I have heard that off and on throughout my life. I have never intended to be that way nor do I feel that way. My attempts at changing my style of communication to eliminate this has always ended in a very frustrating failure. I hold myself to a set of standards that I try to live by and treat other people by. Being a condescending know-it-all is not one of them and certainly goes hard against my attempts to make friends over the mail list. Once again, I apologize. and from Ben: > How ironic that the very next post on the LR list > after this was TerriAnn getting into the Mac vs DOS debate. > At least fighting about LROA and the AW is slightly relivant ;> to this list. Funny how the pot complains ;> about the kettle being black. Ben, I'm sorry that you took it that way. My reply to Paul Donohue was meant as a tongue in cheek attempt at humor. My tongue was obviously preempted by my foot. My sense of humor has always been towards the subtle side and is frequently based on irony. I think that is why I almost always prefer British comedy to American comedy. As you just aptly pointed out, my attempts of humorous banter over the internet can and probably frequently does fail to be recognized as humor by people who do not know me well. I will try to remember that and ether keep my sense of humor out of my postings or post warning signs that what follows is an attempt at humor. No guarantees as I see irony everywhere but I will try. SO my apologies to Ben and any others who were offended by my public reply to Paul. On the positive side... As a result of Paul Donohue's posting and my reply, he and I are exchanging e-mails off list and are getting to know each other better. > TeriAnn I am sure that, like everyone who does such a project, you > learned a lot.........except spelling :) I AM working on that too. My biggest breakthrough in the past was when I stopped using the vi editor for writing e-mails. It made going back to previous lines to correct typos a LOT easier. My next breakthrough has been using a mailer that has a spell checker. I try to use it all the time, but I frequently forget when I'm pressed for time. I have been looking at the words that the checker highlights and trying to memorize the correct spelling. When I have time, I have been going over my e-mails before sending them out to correct spelling before using the checker. Admittedly, like in so many things, I have a long way to go to be as good as most people. But on the positive side, I am trying to make headway and it does seem to be a source of amusement for those who are less spelling challenged. Once again, I apologize to all of you who have been offended by my condescending, abrasive writing style and my failed attempts at humor. Except for the rare instances when I feel that someone has personally attacked me without cause, I have no intention of degrading anyone or making them feel that their contributions are less than mine. Quite the opposite! Sorry.

I've been to both places. The RV places have physically big units mostly designed to be built into the outside wall of the RV and to heat comparatively huge spaces. They have well mount catalyst heaters, the smallest of which might fit. I checked into these. They do not seem to like heavy vibration and dust seems to shorten the life of the catalyst dramatically. I have newish factory seals that funnels dust from miles away into the interior of my LR (attempt at humor). The most promising one from West Marine is a vertical heater that requires a chimney. It requires more space than I have. I guess they all do.

From: Peter Thoren <Peter.Thoren@genetik.uu.se> Date: Fri, 29 May 1998 22:44:27 +0200 Subject: My starter motor thinks it is a machinegun Dear list, At least my problems seems to travel alone... Since I bought my Rover in March I have had about as many problems with it as I have had with my Volvo since I bought it (4 years and 150.000 km ago...). I am not complaining and I assume my Rover will, in some time, be in good shape because most things will be new... After fixing the brakes, timing chain + gears, leaking diesel pump, glow plugs + resistor and more (the car is running for some days and you start to feel good about it when new things happen...) I now have problems with my starter motor. It seems to think it is a machine gun. The symptoms is as follows: When trying to start the machine gun sound is always there. The engine is turned and the car will start, even though I think the engine is not turning as fast as it should. My theory is: The solenoid starts to go bad and is not strong enough. The starter gear on the starter is not gripping the starter gears on the flywheel properly. There are some slipping and the engine will not turn as it should. An alternative explenation would be that wear in the starter motor gear or the starter gear on the flywheel (or both) cause them to slip. It doesn´t matter if I move the car and thus also alters the flywheel. This phenomenon appeared suddenly and it makes me a bit nervous. I assume the starter motor will give up in the worst possible spot and no, I can´t hand crank it because the starter dog has been changed for a ordinary bolt and I don´t have the manual starter device. Any comments and help will be greatly appreciated. When reading the above after writing it I realise it sound like I am not at all happy with my Rover. This is absolutely not the case and I like it more and more for each day. It must be something weird when you like a car more and more even if it only gives you more and more trouble. I guess I am starting to get as mad as everyone else in this list? Thanks Bill for your advice concerning my whining gearbox/transfer box. It looks like I have to live with the sound until I have time and money to pull the gearboxes and check them. Both the reconditioned gearbox and modification of the transfer box was made in England by a Land Rover shop by the PO. I am curious about the out put gear you are mentioning. Did you see any wear and is it a difficult job changing this gear? TeriAnn, don´t bother using energy to defend yourself against people who obviously lack the knowledge on how to behave towards other people. I think your technical know how and nice stories are much more interesting to read about than men (boys?) whining about their green Rovers.

The source of confusion is the inability of standard ASCII to convey the nuances of umlaut characters. The finnish language has two extra characters, "ä" and "ö", and "ä" is something very different from "a". The Formula 1 driver is actually called "Mika Häkkinen", but result boards and sports TV usually distort that into "Hakkinen". The phonetically more accurate representation would be "Haekkinen".

From: Frankelson@aol.com Date: Sat, 30 May 1998 06:32:08 EDT Subject: Re: Apology -no LR content In a message dated 30/05/98 00:23:21, you write: << Please do not tell this to my red Triumph TR3. She would definitely take offense. I already had to sell the MGBGT because it kept bickering with the Triumph. At least the Land Rover and Triumph get along. I think its because that at the Triumph's heart beats an engine that was originally birthed for a Fergason tractor. >> TweriAnn, oh dear, are you in trouble! Luckily you got rid of the MGB. Now these were made in Abingdon (as you no doubt know) but did you know that the Abingdon lot, just off the edge of Oxford, came up with BRG, British Raciong Green... this is NOT Bronze Green. (I know, I had to sit down and rest when I first found this out as well). Then of course, there's the Triumph, not only a tractor engine but a tractor body as well (tee hee, we once put a TR engine -2 or 3 - into a TVR , it shook itself to bits in a couple of months). For Triumph, see my Gaydon Founders Day interview in the 50th anniversary issue of LRO - for money you went down the road to Triumph, for fun and pleasure you went to Rover. Not for nothing is there a saying when people are being ignored ''sent to Coventry''. What a hell hole, sell any car painted red and any car made in Coventry - how you sell yours twice is up to you. best cheers Frank (PS there may be a high humourous content in this mailing , or not, possibly, perhaps) ------------------------------[ <- Message 54 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 980530 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]
