Have any of you guys who are still talking about Greenfire actually looked 
at the Smart Plugs site?   Or do you think I've just been bullshitting? 
Then you'll REALLY have something to talk about...Multi-fuel capable AND no 
distributor AND lots newer data than Greenfire AND the same kind of nose 
ports and flow questions only more so...
