Volvo drivers are generally conservative, attentive drivers who are going to get rear ended by texting yahoos. Of all the ways to get hit, though, rear-end is the best. Not to mention its 99.9% defacto not your fault...as long as you arent in Alabama, the District of Columbia, Maryland, North Carolina, and Virginia that will work out well for you.

Heh, the username is something I came up with when I was in middle school, circa 1999. AOL Instant Messenger days. It's not that original, to be sure, but it tends to be available. Curious what context you're referring to with 'operator'

Appreciate everyone's advice here, fingers crossed we'll soon be driving another wagon.

SWMBO's user name caught my eye, eigenvector. Its used in Quantum Mechanics and many other engineering fields. Quantum Mechancis belong on VW Fora, though.

Haha! Good catch. My day job is in biophysics.

I did lipid bilayer mobiity studies in UB Medical school decades ago - way way back - before Bio-anything was a thing.

Whoa! What a small world. I work on membrane proteins myself.
