JOB said: (quoted from post at 18:50:55 12/07/14) The bombing of Pearl was forgotten many, many years ago. That is why they are buying Japanese cars and equipment, because they do not care what the Japanese did in 41. Every time that Japanese car or piece of equipment is started up they are saying Thank You to Japan.
How long do you carry a grudge? The Germans, Japanese and Italians all took part in WW2. Ireland refused to participate and we don't hold anything against them. Russia was on our side and they are still the enemy. In WW1 Italy was on our side and so was Japan. The Spanish fought us in the Spanish American war and in the war for Texas int he 1830's. We fought in Nicaragua and Hondouras in the 20's and 30's and Cuba in the 50's. The North and South fought in the 1860s and we fought the British in the 1770's/80's and again in 1812. We fought the French in the 1750's and all those indians too. Go back further and my family was forcibly removed from their ancestral lands in Scotland by the British and Scotish gentry and long before that were killed by the Germans, French, Irish, English and Vikings at different times when they were known by different names (my folks were Picts). Just how long do you hold a grudge? Trust me, I've lived in Japan and there's lots of Japanese that hate America more than you hate them. What does it get you in the end? There's lots of Americans right now that were never held in slavery that want reparations for it. Same thing.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
