+1...just rebuilt my motor after 6K miles on a MM rebuild commissioned by former owner. My mechanic had to replace everything except for cases and carbs. Crank, cams, cylinders, heads etc. all junk. Took him 2 weeks to clean all the sealing glue off everything. Beware of these guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let's be careful with this. If print publishing is a valid analogy, subscription fees make up less than 10% of revenues, IIRC. If the ads get killed, how much do you want to pay for membership? When I knew memberships were going directly to John D., it was a bargain. Now that the site appears to be shifting to the "ad supported" business model, I'm not so sure that memberships as important.

These banners are much more palatable than Vonage "Move over, Phone Company" TV ads, for example. (I want to kill myself every time.) I don't mind ads. Occasionally you come across a product or service you're actually looking for.
