[DeTomaso] Fuel gauge sender

[Dick Koch]

Well happy and importantly good health on your upcoming 76th, Bill. 

Good advice on time allocation.  Its interesting how one looks at the 
trade off in the time one has left on this earth to the effort to fix 
things themselves. 

I still take pride in being able to repair, redesign, and replace things 
on my own.  However, now the time left on this earth comes into play 
given all the other things I want to do before I depart this life, which 
given the current thrust by our government may be shorter than I would 
have thought.

Take care and thanks for all the advice and help you provide the Pantera 
community.  It saves me bookoos of time in trying to figure things out 
myself.
