Bruce's Stuff

Bruce Plecan was very active on various auto-related mailing lists from the late 1990s, then moved mostly to web forums after 2001 or so. After Bruce died in May of 2007 I started going back to recover some of the technical information he'd posted. Unfortunately, some of the forums had vanished utterly, others had aged out old messages, and some threads had apparently been deleted by the moderators. The Internet Wayback Machine only archived the home pages of those sites, so all of that old forum data was lost forever.

Bruce was a dying man this whole time. All the time he spent passing on what he knew could have been used for something else; he figured another year, maybe, before something important quit working. He chose to spend some of those precious hours and minutes passing on what he'd learned over the years.

I'm trying to recover everything I can. Some of it is outdated; some is trivial, some is argumentive or childish, same as anyone else when you drag all their old messages out into the cold light of days after. And some of it... it's worth reading.
