    i covered that crap when i was a sophomore in high school, something like 13 years ago now. derivatives are easy. integrals are harder. you can't program a calculator to solve integral formulas for you unless you have the values for it, but you can have the calculator do derivatives. since i left high school, i don't think i have used any of that portion of my learning for any real world application.

    Part of it is that mathemeticians are really history buffs, and they want to show off how things were before the fancy new formulas (new as in 1600s usually, lol) came along.

    Other part is that they want to teach the harder way first so you understand the logic behind the simpler route so you can prove your answers. It's not something you as a student really care about because to you, a rule is a rule. However, if you were to make a career out of math or math theory, you'd either have to prove your work or be venturing into coming up with new theories, and therefore need to know how to test your results.

    Last night a bug hit my eye while I was biking. Today one of my eyes is totally red. This sucks.

    Deck plate, all time auxillary, black billet, xeon bulbs, sockmonkey decals, and lots of back to black.

    Why didnt i think of that!

    No... no, ill just zip tie mine to the passenger window. It'll be a nice clean look.

    Why would ge do all that work then sell it "200" miles later. It screams, "oh shit! Better sell it now"

    Sorry i get angry like the hulk when the line at subway goes out the door. I used to think roseburg was cool. Now im done. 3 dumb asses with tow hooks on the back of their hondas and ive deemed the town unfit.

    hahha maybe next you'll see a civic with sliders! that would be the day!

    On another note - if i wanted my rear sit sit 1" higher than the front (sitting 3"), and i was planning on doing a 2" AAL with 5100, would i be able to add a 1" shackle and step up to 5125 or would the 5100s still work?

    BTW just found out im heading to Seattle tomorrow...SHIIIIITY!

    Boy is it an interesting task figuring out where someone left off on a project rig. To bad the drive lines that came with it are to short.

    It was the best option for what I need. It ended being the same price as a Badland (HF brand) w/ syn. line and I didn't want a Schmittybilt. Plus the good support and warranty from Warn.

    The 8k is cutting it close for weight, but a snatch block will work in most cases and get more line off the drum. It needed to be compact for the mount we are putting together.
