[AT] Spam> Favorite tractor?

[Larry D Goss]

Hey Farmer, I solved the problem of seizures while filling a 5-gallon can 
with gas -- I stop at $15 worth regardless of the amount of gas that's in 
the can.  It may seem stupid, but it causes the seizures to be much lighter. 
It also causes the gas can to be much lighter so it isn't so hard to lift it 
up for filling.

It works for me.

Larry
