While not as properly gramatical, I think this is the way the acronym was first coined. It comes originally, if I am not mistaken, from the Robert Heinlein classic "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress". See http://www.jargon.net/jargonfile/t/TANSTAAFL.html for more information if you are curious. So much for todays science fiction history lesson. :) -- Dwight do not archive ... please .... as it has NOTHING to do with RVs ... :)

    --> RV-List message posted by: Bill Dube <william.p.dube@noaa.gov> I actually use the front edge of the workbench instead of the top. I hold the rib against the edge of the workbench as I flute. This is a natural position to grip the pliers. You can look down and see the gap narrow as you squeeze.

Getting to town and back was nearly as exciting as departing OSH 2005. :-) Seriously, Phil's home airport is a fine stop, and the car did a great job of wallowing to lunch and back. The occasional backfire blended right in with the, uh, tailwinds the four occupants were producing, and the fact the windows had to be sorta rolled/slid down was a bonus. Fuel prices were the best we found in the area. I'll probably stop again for OSH 2006. Sam Buchanan
