Anyone want to have Hub have his own section here?I for one do.He had one a few years back....I think it would be an awesome "Ask Hub" for some very valuable Owner's Questions;)...I say...give him his props and revive his old Topic Section....

I always thought it was a great resource but it's up to Hubster if he wants to be the official technical advisor. I think he was getting a bit overwhelmed with enquiries back in the days of ASK HUB.

I requested Open Q&A so that brings people in like You, and ______ Fill the blank. Back in the day? I tried not to leave a zero answer. If someone answered before me: I left it alone... It answered the question. You mean laughing too much getting booted off other sites? Every one was a tech question I had some experience with so I used their abstract against them and threw the book at them = Just the Messenger. (I'm cracking up)

The source information providers on this site are Hub, Rook, Romans, CBLAST and a sprinkle of some other folks like Mebgardner! These are the mechanical info providers as I see it.
Perhaps a RookHuBmebRomesBlast section?
I'd include Woolich too but he is new and needs to earn some wings. There is also a cat on here called NorthernKaw that is a pioneer.

all I have is a buttload of pictures. I learned everything I from the others like Hub an Romans and Onebad who pops in over here from time to time. Don't forget Greenie. I got a lot of good tips from that guy too. There's a lot of people with great info. Some don't post real often but they are helpful when they do. Some have moved on and we don't hear from anymore. That guy, heathun had a lot of good info and blue06 who recently returned also has been most helpful.

Must be one of Hubs guilty favz. Turtle. I think I saw that movie on TV about 15 years ago. You also could still see a mullet every now and again back in those days.

Surf? No, no, I used the quote, 'no one listens to the shop manual' and that's my source. And when you do it your way, not the book's... "I told ya... No one listens to turtle' is the... Hindsight. In other words, I've been there, oh well, find out for yourself, I sure couldn't stop you.
Emotional over your bike? You mean, I reflect. You know, prank call me and I turn it right around on you.... "HA Low? Your drinks getting warm!"
YW, EZX
PM? You are missing the best conversations it stays one on one.
Rook, the old lady bought the video. We'd watch it before heading out for our many vacations in Hawaii. Surf music, the actors (turtle), the novice out points the expert... That's about as Campy a Movie as it gets.

Here's a few more entertaining minutes of no deposit, no return of your time wasted waiting for winter to thaw. 6 pages of comments: I had them guessing, laughing, even slipped in the basics, waiting for that password and 4 choppers later... Once I found the pdf shop manual it was off to the races. The rest was guess how your abstract works in my world, show me the penultimate is how you speak it, say watt?
What's wrong with the Q and A section that's already in place?
That's what I say. Someone asks a question, I'm going to go off in "fun witheory in the hubbishit," not the yes or no you are looking for, it didn't really answer your question did it? Why put you thru it when someone already knows the answer. My MO is the same cultype I chopshit out of the englishitin language.

Alg8er .... Nothing wrong with other section, but this one gets hub's attention quicker maybe? He has a limited one ya know. LOL Been here a long time myself, and usually do not bother to post much. If Hub is giving the advice, listen. Seems to know what he's talking about. Been reading, and sometimes posting for many years now. Not aware of any bad info from him yet. goes for Rook, Romans and Grn also. not sure about Cblast, as I do not remember him going back a ways. Maybe they did, I don't recall though.
There it is. My post for this month. LOL

zxinit; Nothing but respect for the Hub! It's just that we tried it already, and it seemed too limited to me. Other people that could answer hesitated because it was directed to Hub in his thread. I haven't seen a day go by that Hub isn't here answering questions. (forced vacation aside) It just seems unnecessary. Which is what Hub said (I think)

+1 for the Hub Q+A addition! Hub, you rock, at least, when I can sort through the answer :) Wait, What?!!?
Wolf, you're very kind, and I'm grateful for you remembering me. Mostly, I'm just hitting folks over the head what have a hard time remembering those they're responsible for, and who love them.
That's my gig! Fix the heart and reap the bennies. Yeah, those guys get laid more too. You knew I had ulterior motive, huh?
I'm also facinated that Grn has recommended this addition. I thought the war was real. Glad to see I was wrong there, and that Hub and Grn both are truely back (I know, never left, all good).

I must have been absent the day they covered that in angel school. The hottest chicks always seem to be more interested in money. I see a way to cover both bases. Turn in my angel license, go back to school and get a doctorate in psychology.

No turning in the license *for you*! (Said in the tone of the "Soup Nazi").
Yeah, well, you got a point there. Money Talks to a certain hottest chicks crowd.
