[AT] Thought to ponder

[Cecil Bearden]

Metric fasteners are the easiest to cross thread for me.  I really have 
to be careful on my ATV's with the aluminum cases.  My Belarus tractors 
are not a real problem.  However, the British Straight pipe thread on 
the hydraulic fittings is a real pain to keep from cross threading..
