bernie,  while all of us who generally lurk on the list know of your
parsimonious proclivities,  cracking of the external rubber jacket on
the brake lines is a safety inspection failure in almost any state in
the union...although given the number of rusty old hulks that i have
seen driving around in vermont, there may be some exceptions to that
rule...  ;-)
