Did you see this on Avweb today?

"Aircraft owners in Kansas and parts of the Southwest are worried about a
policy adopted by one and
possibly two aircraft maintenance providers to refuse to work on aircraft
that are 18 years or older. "


Damn, my car is older than that! I like old things and the drive to force
obsolescence just offends me so much. One of my bikes is fifty this year!

Let's hope this practice of not working on older things doesn't bleed
over into the medical profession...

It did already with HMOs...just talk to someone who's tried to have
the medical system (I won't call it a profession) take care of their
aging parent...
