I think that gentleman whas Scott (PDQSHIP).  I suspect I too have
a chunk of bad insulation.  My coupe has bad tail lights and the
bulbs are fine.  In fact, here comes the humorous (?) anecdote part,
I recently got pulled over because of it.  Now I was in a bad part of 
town, and the local constabulary, well they are notoriosly... thorough ;-)
They asked me if I had had anything to drink.  I was on mty way to a beer
tasting and had just had a VERY aromatic beer, but only 1/4 of it.
The rest went to marinade the pork loins (smoked, yum!)  I stunk like
crazy, they had me out, hands behind my back, frisked, ran my record,
got my friend out, same deal.  Now can you immagine if that had happened
on the way BACK from the beer tasting!  Anyhow they sent me on my way
telling me to get my tailight fixed. I wanted to say, thanks for not
beating the shit out of me, but decided to just leave. Now maybe I can
fix the light and remove that entre' to being busted.  Got a beer?
