RE: Who are you, what do you do, where are you from?
My name is Cameron, from Dayton Ohio. In the day to pay the bills I work as a web designer and print advertisment manager for a large Motocross Race Team (www.troy-racing.com). For fun I like working on my cars / trucks / motorcycles and stuff. Modifying them to make them look better, sound better, go faster, etc etc. I'm a pretty laid back type of person whom just last weekend bought my first Volvo, a '99 S80 which I have already grown to love. Have any questions for me? Feel free to ask! Any motorcycle guru's out there let me know if you need parts, sponsorships, etc and I can help ya out. Just PM me. Thanks too all for making this a kick-*** forum!

18 years old, electrocuted 21 times, one of the times being 240V working on an electric stove (didn't know the switches went directly to 240V) electronics enthusiast wanting a degree in electronics engineering, and I may be moving to my friends house. Her cousin, mom, and me all work at the same place while me her and her cousin go to the same school.
I like to find simple solutions to complex problems. gotta fix the blower motor "resistor" in the volvo? Put a relay in place instead, I use it on full blast anyways. :P
Need to charge a 12v battery with a 24 volt solar panel? Use an old voltage regulator from a car, and use the diodes from the alternator (Polarity wont matter when plugging in the solar panel!) Besides the panel is only 350mA.
Bug zapper broke? lets put a microwave transformer, and a capacitor on it and play with it. (Too strong, kinda melted the two electrodes together after I left it with my friends family)
Afraid you will forget to feed the chickens? Setup a light fixture to turn on at night so that the bugs will fly in and eventually die, chickens will be well fed.
oh, Forgot to mention I love playing with chemicals. Still need a smock though, ruined a few pairs of jeans cleaning out rust from an old gas tank.
i work at a DME company. That's durable medical equipment. Our company does walkers,wheelchairs,etc as well as oxygen and cpap machines. I have a college fine arts degree in ceramics so i am a potter of sorts. More like a lapsed potter since I haven't potted for some time. I live in Upstate South Carolina but am a minority Independent/Democrat politically so my vote rarely counts nationally

Longtime activist for the Article V Convention: Congress needs a flushing and a federal convention is the only way to do it. More and more are unafraid to use Article V in order to put representatives back on track. Check FOAVC here: Page One

I've retired and moved to No. California. My beloved '92 240 was too rusty to ship, so I sold it for a fair price. I picked up a really nice '83 240 wagon out here. It had some quirks, but I've got them ironed out.
Business jet pilot, living in Denmark with my wife and daughter.
Just bought my first Volvo (940 turbo wagon), which I hope I can make pretty and go fast.
Phoenix, just an ordinary editor. When I was in high school I wrote for pleasure, later I realized that I can earn money doing it. So I did and finally bought my first car (Volvo of course). Then I turned it into my career and enjoyed my life to the fullest. Now I’m working on a project about recliners, sofas, massage chairs and so on. Writing about it makes me wanna fill my flat with it.
