Congratulations, Edd.  Be sure to send pictures when you get 'em.  I'm  
a little curious about what kind of Yank engines would be better than  
some nice English engines.

You're right about the attention that foreign engines can get.  I  
especially get a kick out of reading TOMM or SEM, and seeing the same  
enthusiasm given toward nice local engines and common American  
engines.  The same is true here.

Rob
