I also have read his comments with interest.  But, when he says in open 
forum that his Superchips company has this item available, that is 
advertising, and should have gone to private email.  First time is no 
biggy either.  But it has to stop.

No, but his slam of the competition was very much out of hand.  I'd like 
to hear BBR's comments on the subject.

I also think that if Peter Wales was here primarily for the Quattro 
commeraderi, that his .sig would tell us which Audi he drives, not what 
company he owns.  Does he even drive an Audi?  Peter?
