Quoting Removed, click Modern View to see Gene Bender is a regular poster here. I think he claims to be 80, but has some unparalleled knowledge of smaller Farmalls, I'm not yet 70 but have forgotten a lot of things I used to think I knew.
My mom was a one room school teacher before I came along. She pounded grammar, usage, and spelling into me. Things like the difference between effect and affect.
