Can't be Tanner. He died looking for his ankles in Chad's Gap years agoQuote:

That was all a fraud. Turns out he's been living with Elvis and Jim Morrison in South America.Quote:

Big efforts now on collecting as much genetic inventory as possible for both, and a cross-border effort is being made to plant whitebark wherever possible in conjunction with other high elevation reforestation efforts. Very cool program actually.

I had my car in for service yesterday and they had this car on display. Apparently this was the first mass-produced Honda, called the Z600. It's ten feet long and weighs 1,300 pounds. Powered by a two-cylinder motorcycle engine.
