Message: <blockquote data-quote="The Necessary" data-source="post: 68500" data-attributes="member: 302">Lee, if I didn't CARE for your health and the health of any other forummer who would blindly follow your advice, I would not have exhibited half the passion I did.Civility is highly over rated- and why and how does owning a BMW make one supposedly more civil? Wow, I MUST be really going up the social ladder if and when I get a Porsche! Ya right!Oh, and ignorance in others reallys irritates me... surely, any man capable of owning a BMW would be more intelligent than that... right? (Hey, how about this as a pre-requisite of owning a BMW- not high brow civillity- but intelligence!)About your point about engineered "parameters"... well, I did respond eloquently to that by saying that you must DO THINGS RIGHT. Ie., buy TuV approved products, etc. Of course no engineer, except god, can design a product that will be safe in EVERY situation, but in the absence of totality, we should not accept anything less than thoroughness.Now, about wantonly foaming your entire chassis... do you believe it was DONE RIGHT?Also, with most things in life, one must think about COMMERCIAL ADVANTAGES.Now, IF foaming was the bee's knees, WHY would BMW (amongst others) spend untold millions of Euros developing ever newer, lighter, chassis to underpin their cars, and in the process of doing so, NEVER using foaming to the extent that it's been used by you? Surely, the technology is not new nor patented, and the costs are not high.Now, they (major automotive manufacturers) have not used foaming extensively (I know about the join between pillars and chassis bits, but that's cos welding compromises the strengh of the metals), one must ask: WHY.Now, Lee, have you asked yourself that question?</blockquote>
