>>>There are two kinds of fools: One says, "This is old therefore it is good." The other one says, "This is new therefore it is better." - William R. Inge>>> Call me a fool, but, in many cases, old is better. Then we try to define "better" and therein lies the rub. We all must define "better" for ourselves. I like old guitars, old banjos, old cameras, old rock and roll, old amps, old motorcycles, Coke in "old" green bottles, (ok, not exactly old) old women, old machinery, and lots of other old things. I decided old is better in most cases. A classic Knucklehead is "better" than any Japanese bike, but you might disagree if you have a need to fly down the road at 160+ MPH. Then we park and my bike is perhaps considered better than your bike. Better is a tricky word. Bob
