Folks, I hate to turn this thread into a rant because I did try to write that post as an honest but humorous account of my purchase yesterday. But I am serious about this stuff. I simply don't like giving give my info out everywhere. It irks the heck out of me that at every purchase at gas stations, hardware stores, supermarket, Grainger, Fastenal, Napa, Oreilly's and every other place I trade with they want me to have their rewards card or get on their preferred customer list. Those places ask you for it every time you make a purchase. If you don't have the card on you, just give them your phone #. You're in their databank. I see people blithely rattle off their phone # just to buy dog food. I say sheesh. I would Never sign up for that. Those places do give you discounts or send you coupons in the mail for sales and the like. If you like that stuff, GO FOR IT! You don't have to be like me. I don't want ANY of that stuff and I don't want ANY junk mail. Increasingly, I am paying for smaller purchases with cash. And if I pay with cash I simply won't give you any info.

I was sorry to have a confrontation with that old man yesterday, he was a little irritated - but I am not going to voluntarily get tracked everywhere I make a purchase, no matter how hard they press me. Especially if I pay with cash.

Today's Featured Article - Fordson Model N: Field Service Operations and Lubrication - by Anthony West.

This being so, it surprises me to see how many enthusiasts attending rallies, shows etc, seem to be unaware of the importance of this constant attention. Possibly the modern machine with its 6,000 mile or even once
