[VB] Good NEws

Hey Kevin,
Good to hear that you got your bus running properly. Sometimes trouble 
shooting is tough, but always interesting. I think many of us learned a 
lot tuning into the VB list.
Have some Great Bussin'.

I did get to address a bunch of other outstanding things, and noticed some others that I'll need to address at some point, but I've got a working bus. And it is fun to drive it again. I also think the vintage bus list got some action for what seems like a long time ;)
