Back on September 10th you posted this exact question to alt.autos.honda
and got a bunch of replies. Are you hoping the answer will be different
if you post in this group instead?
Here's a link to David's original posting:
<http://groups.google.com/group/alt.autos.honda/browse_thread/thread/af792c0b4d9a9810/9339e89397520ad1?q=group:alt.autos.honda+author

This should be all on one line.
It's very interesting that "Earl the #1" was the first respondent
to both threads, replying the same way almost word for word; in
15 minutes the first time and in two hours the second, and posting
nothing at all otherwise except in reply to David's two posts.
David wouldn't be...a troll...would he?
