Thom, Could you tell why the rover stranded him? Did it just die, or did he get stuck? Victor |

the armoured one had a fuel pump failure. the RR had contaminated fuel and sputtered for hours then died....so the fact they got stranded was more there own dumb decisions. Thom |

Leason learned: When you're driving your Rover through post-war Iraq, always use octane booster. ABC News should know better than to send a top journalist into a hostile environment un-prepared! e |
