[NTLK] Oil in Newton.. LOL

[Ed Kummel]

reminds me of an old joke from the 80's in reference to old British cars...
Q - Why don't the British make a computer"
A - They haven't figured out how to get it to leak oil yet.

Bad taste? Well, it *IS* a joke after all!

I cleaned it up but the back of the MP (under the plastic insulation) has oil.. i'm gonna see if gravity will slowly drain it out, tried pushing it out, not much luck... *sigh* lol..
