    It’s a computer server chassis, basically an empty version of one of these: https://www.supermicro.com/en/products/chassis/2u/826/SC826BE1C-R920LPB

    Roughly 3.5” x 17.5” x 25.5” and weighs maybe 20ish? lbs (the chassis I linked above has all the hardware, the chassis I am looking to pickup is mostly empty). I wouldn’t strap it to a motorcycle (and I’ve actually tried) but it would be happy enough in the back seat under some softer gear/luggage.

    Thanks for the description.

    I think I can accommodate getting this back from GJ. Slated to be in town on 16Aug and turning round back to front range the 17th. PM me if you want to move forward!

    I did. Made home from the springs. This will be the second time I had to do this. Last time I broke a rear axle in Moab and had to FWD home all the way from there. Front diff was not happy.

    It makes sense on paper. Many decades ago we established and enforced food labeling and if it doesn't list an ingredient (or more), than it's not in compliance.*

    Sure, we can laugh that "of course butter has milk dum-dum", but this is following a flow-chart of rules - something like "if missing ingredient. level 1 recall. If it's missing a main ingredient from one of these lists, level II recall"

    Also, removed the click-bait MSN link with advertisement tracking and including the official FDA page here (which doesn't have the details yet). https://www.fda.gov/safety/recalls-market-withdrawals-safety-alerts

    *The Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990 made nutritional facts mandatory. The regulation also standardized the nutrition labels, revealing all the ingredients and nutritional information.
