PS: Snow thrower or snow blower? What's the correct terminology? Both are accepted terminology for the same thing. Some people argue, with some justification, that a snow thrower is another name for a single stage machine while snow blower describes a 2 stage machine.

I think Fred and some other MTD owners like, and are proud of, their machines. Many owners of other brands of machines have the same opinions of their equipment. Sometimes expressoins of pride and the good natured teasing that comes from making competitive comparasons between the brands that are liked by others gets mis-understood or taken too seriously. I can't speak for the other moderators, but at the time Fred posted this, there was a bad egg trying to come to the surface. Which made a post that under normal curcumstances would have been just another chance for brand specfic snowblower lovers to beat their chests, in to a post that was treated with a heightened sensitivity. At least two good things will come from this post, A thriller from James Clavell "Snowblower Jihad" and the romance novel from Maeve Binchey " When Mary Met Snowdude".

Chris amd Marshall, Since you have banned one person for speaking out. I'm mostly likly next, I would like to express my deep feelings througha quote. It expresses my feelings to the letter as what this forum should be. In 1906, Evelyn B. Hall wrote, " I dissaprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it" . Fred
