Ok. You're right. Tragedy plus time is comedy. I'll wait a few more.

Changing your oil every 5 years gives reason for living.

Never mix N2 with N1 air.

It may already have been about 5 years, since an oil thread reached the point where someone posted the list of Porsche Factory Approved oils. Pages and pages, hundreds of oils, of every brand, viscosity and composition you could name. Only real barrier to being on the list seemed to be submitting the oil and paying the testing fee once very few years. Bona fide masochists will search out this thread. So when Lex says MOTOR OIL: PICK ONE he might be joking but he's not kidding.
