Steve, your story reminds me of a similar story that happen to me about seven years ago. We had a heck of a snow storm. Roads closed, drifts up to your chest and so on. I drove my tractor to the dairy to do the evening milking and feeding so I could clear the alleys, pre-milk and post-milk areas and clear the entrance so the transport could get in the next morning to haul milk. I got home really late and was super tired. Hit the sack and about an hour later my wife woke me up saying that someone had just drove out the drive with my tractor. I told her I was too tired and it was likely someone we knew needing it to clear snow, besides there is way too much snow on the ground for it to disappear. When I got up the next morning it was back. Still warm and full of fuel. When I headed back to the dairy I followed it's tracks about a mile down the road and sure enough the neighbor borrowed it to clear his drive and do his feeding. His critters were fed and able to get to water. Turns out his tractor was tore down for a repair and without the snow he could get by, but put a couple feet of snow on the ground and he was in a jam and needed a machine. I stopped and we had coffee and back to the dairy I went. We are lucky where we live. Keys are always in everything and never a problem. If a vehicle or whatever comes up missing it's not far off and always finds it's way home damage free. We all have a standing agreement. If you need it come and get it. Just bring it back. If you break it fix it.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
