[Relaited]

I do want the appropriate enforcement, and to level the playing field. A guy who comes in and details without a wash mat has a lower cost structure than I do. I try to wash as few cars as possible ... no money in cleaning cars. And no I would never sell you a wash mat, can’t sell you the waterless, and, although there is a remote possibility that I may be able to sell you something if you were in So California … the odds are very slim on a fit of compatibility. Both from my end and from yours, not really my agenda.

This is my last post, … I am off for the weekend.

I meet with a San Diego County City on Monday, I do not have any devious intentions. They are concerned that the Total Maximum Daily Loads as put out by the SWCB will create a finable offense as the City cannot just allow things to happen without proper controls.
Now, as they are introducing those controls, I advocate reasonable controls. Use a wash mat, No Rinse, Steam or waterless and best available technology as a best management practice.

Maybe I am delusional. A recent industry veteran convert, fought me as hard as anyone here, and now I go out of my way to help him without any, not one financial relationship ... he encourages me to stop posting as I am "casting pearls to swine". His words, not mine.

I thought I had a tremendous amount of energy … but you guys win, I am defeated by attrition.

Have a nice and profitable weekend, happy Easter.
