Making Noise when Making Noise Isn't Really Do
I own a repiar facility for automobiles.
Have discovered a disease called "everscenccha" "ever since ya changed my oil, I can't get nothing on my radio" Many people make noise to be making noise because they got nuthin better to do. Un-founded noise makers surely make it tough for the legimate noise makers. 10 years the gasket, or no gasket performed well. Hank, what is the basis for and why do you figure the repair facility deserves the abuse, bad publicity, confrontation, "noise" that you suggest they deserve in this case? Curious...
