When I was 14 years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned 21, I was astounded at how much he had learned in the last 7 years!

That's because it's not in the shop yet Terry, it's in one of the garage stalls. I will make room in the shop over the next couple of weeks.
