  1. You missed a few things with the Jiffy Lube oil change

     

    2a. pay $20 for a $5 air filter that may or may not have been installed

    2b. pay $15 for a $4 set of wiper refills that may or may not have been installed

    2c. pay $10 for a $2 light bulb

    2d. pay $75 for a transmission flush they don't do

    2e. pay $65 for a $5 bottle of injector cleaner dumped in the gas tank

    2f. pay $300 to replace a scratched windshield because they installed the wrong wiper refills or installed them wrong

     

    4. Pay $3,000 to $5,000 for a rebuilt engine because Jiffy Lube didn't tighten the drain plug or forgot it altogether

    or used a no name oil filter that ruptured after 15 min while you were driving 70 on the highway


  2. The science fiction club with the largest membership is Starfleet International Star Trek Fan Association. Founded in 1974 and based in Maryland, USA

     

    This club started life as the Star trek Association of Towson. STAT for short. I actually used to be a member way back when. This is the same group that puts on the Shore Leave Trek con every year.

    I must let you and ohers know that your post is in error. The Star Trek Association Of Towson (STAT) was not founded untill 1978. I know this as I was one of the original founders of this club. I was the convention chairman of Shore Leave 1 in 1979. Starfleet is not an offshoot of STAT, nor is STAT an offshoot of Starfleet. While the 2 clubs share some membership and Starfleet holds meetings at Shore Leave and some of their members have worked at Shore Leave that is their only true connection.
