In the WitP forum it was mdiehl and his extremist fanatism.
Y'know, Ursa, for a guy who has spent his last dozen or so posts calling "foul" on other posters for being uncivil, you sure do dedicate alot of your life trolling for me.
Show me a fellow who rejects statistical analysis a priori and I'll show you a fellow who has no knowledge of statistics.

No mdiehl good try, but even your oversized bias cannot be compared to Doggie's.
Well rune you ARE a strawman indeed. You know it well that the arrow crosses were the hungarian nazis (or using commie definitions fascists -who were in turn italian but such nuisances does not bother you do they?) so it is a nice try but futile.
pauk
I'll try to restrain myself from posting but my temper you know. [;)]

Well, but my point is that you're here, trolling, for me. You have no standing to grouse about Doggie or anyone else when you constantly bring up my name in the context of some disparaging remark.

Check out the mustang:
Mr. Iowahawk commented that:
Just thought I’d share some before and after pictures of my Ford GAA tank engine. All aluminum 1100 cubic inch V8 used in WWII Sherman Tanks. These were gas burners rated at 500 HP and 1050 Ft. Lbs. of torque for military service, but are capable of much much more using mostly stock parts. They feature a 60 degree vee, 5.4 bore x 6.0 stroke, 180 degree factory billet cranks, pent roof combustion chambers, shaft driven DOHC’s, 4 valves per cylinder, and dual mags. They are pretty high tech. engines, especially considering they were built in the early 40’s. I’ve been working on getting one of mine going for the last couple of years, and should be cranking it within a week or so. It’s setting in my 70 Mustang right now which I plan on taking on short cruises when finished, 24 gallons of alcohol wont go very far. It is bolted to a heavily modified Powerglide right now. Wilcap ( Pat McGuire ) built the adapter and flexplate for me.
