Step 1 - Go to a junkyard and pull the necessary parts off a car. This will teach you all you need to know about removing the broken part from your son's car. While you're there see if there are any other useful parts that you can scrounge (pedal covers, visors, screws, trim bits, etc.).Screwtape said:

It's most likely that the problem is with the "talkaboutautos" site. Have you considered configuring your email/newsreader program for direct newsgroup access or is that not an option? It's pretty simple to do. About all you need to know is the name of your ISPs news server. It's typically something like "news.verizon.net"hyundaitech said:
If you know how I can access a recent posts feature on google, then I'll probably move pretty quickly. Thanks again.Good question. I don't used Google, as I just set up my Email/newsreader (Mozilla Thunderbird) for direct usenet access. With Thunderbird, you have the option of how you want to view posts (I find threaded most useful) and you can specify to show only threads with unread posts. You can "kill" any thread that you're not interested in with a single keystroke. There are a lot of higher level functions that I don't need or use, so I can't tell you what else is possible, but it may be worth a look. The software is free, so you don't have to make any investment. There are also many free "extensions" that add specific capabilities. I'd be willing to bet that you can configure it to do just about anything you want. You can get it at: www.mozilla.orghyundaitech said:Thanks, Brian. I've looked at it. I don't see any way to see my recent posts, which is a feature talkabout provides. I use it to help me decide when to stop watching threads. When a thread moves of my recent posts list, I stop looking at it. For right now, I'm thinking about it, but it's more likely I'll continue with doing what I'm doing and then whine about it.
