[DML] Dashes! - the new stimulus package...

["Tom Tait" <TTait@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I was going to post this over at DMChelp, but the site is down for new
postings...

 

Knut asked a pointed question in his recent post, when will the dashes
be done...?  Well, obviously that's complicated.

 

>From what James said some time back, I think they are.  I understood the
problem to be the texture on the binnacle as of September or so.

 

Now, it sure would be nice to have a matching new dash and binnacle in
my car at the same time, but maybe that's the flaw in our logic that's
holding all this up...

 

Given that it will take many of us an extended time to replace the dash
in the car, why not start selling them now during the winter maintenance
season?  They won't just be selling dashes - they will be selling
kneepads, A-pillar covers, AC boxes, speakers, flasher relays, inertia
switches, air ducts - all those things we have been putting off
replacing or didn't know needed replacing.  We could do that now, while
its nasty and cold outside! (Admittedly its in the high 70's here today
in CA - but I feel for you guys out in the snow...)  It would bring
countless weekends of cussing and grumbling and cut fingers as we all
set to work ridding the community of cracked brown dashes at nearly the
same time...  Boy, That would be something, huh?

 

We'll do the binnacles later,  that only takes a couple of hours.
Right?  Besides, nothing gets binnacles finished like the profits from
all those dashes.

 

Maybe if enough of us expressed interest to Houston in doing this we
could get the lions share of the work done before St. Patty's Day.

 

James, if enough of us committed to just getting the dashes now, could
you make that work and start getting those out to us?
