I don't believe it.

CompCams is a multi-million dollar company and the leading camshaft manufacturer in the USA, probably in the world. In 2002, 42 of the 43 NASCAR teams ran CompCams camshafts (don't have the latest figures), and now you're trying to tell me that Schneider grinds their cams. HOG WASH!

I've seen TV specials on their state of the art facilities and the actual grinding process including the million dollar grinding and checking equipment they have installed. In an interview, even Harvey Crane said they are the leading cam grinder in the country, even more-so than his operation.

Now you're trying to tell me that Schneider grinds them!? Well, let's see:

There are those that say we never landed astronauts on the moon. That it was all faked on a Hollywood movie set.

Then there're the folks who say there was no such thing as a Holocaust. It was all a fabrication.

When my daughter entered Harvard four years ago, the keynote speaker's topic at the welcoming ceremony was learning to recognize B.S. when you hear it. He said, speaking to the incoming freshman class, that if they didn't learn anything else during their time at Harvard, he would hope they would learn how to recognize B.S. (my words, not his) when they heard it. That's how important it is.

I've got the ceremony on VHS cassette and will be happy to make a copy and send it to you; email me your address:jakejr266@sbcglobal.net

I believe, over the years, I've developed that ability. In fact, I just read an example of it.
