[DeTomaso] So you think you had a bad day at the shop?

[Charles Engles]

Dear Dave,


                 I apologize for this digression, but when you said, "They said it 'just fell off' ", it triggered a synapse for a bit of humor about "the bow fell off".

                 There is enough British humor here.that Julian will enjoy it, I suspect.

I didn't see the aftermath Jeff. They said it "just fell off".
Their shop insurer sent a guy out to inspect it and he had nothing to say either.
Rating was 12,000 lbs.

Something flexed?
Something was missing a pin?
Guy just plain set the pads too close?
other?

Dave
