Post from South Africa

Several days ago I saw a post from a member in S.Africa. He has a 12V and was having a starting problem and was concerned about his wife driving it. He mentioned that he was an evangelist. He got a less than helpful reply that he should ask God for help with his problem.
I was looking for this thread to see if someone had tried to help him but cannot find it. I hope he didn't delete his post as I am sure there are many members who are more than happy to provide some useful tips.
Anyone know anything about this post?

Tom,

I never saw a post like that here, if you find it please point it out to me as well, I don't find any humor in that type of reply at all.

It was on here last Sat morning. I should have responded immediately but was in a hurry and didn't get back until Sun. Nice to know your reaction was the same as mine.

Thats an awful way to respond to someone. I was on here Sat morning and don't remember seeing it. Was it in the other forum or in one of the 12V specific forums?

Well I searched and this is the only thread that mentions Africa within the specified time frame. This is also the only thread that mentions Africa and evangelist.

Do you frequent any other diesel forums?

I'm on TDR also but I'm pretty sure it was on this forum. He said he was a missionary rather than evangelist.
thanks for the replies.

I remember reading it and he did get the help he needed from what I remember. I don't remember where exactly it was at.

Are people getting cabin fever, is the moon full, inflation making everbody crazy? Seen a few folks get banned, threads go missing, people just being down right rude and fussy. I'll go back to my old excuse, must be something in the water.

I think I saw that post in the "HELP!" thread but didn't see any replys when I looked.

It's called Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D.) and I didn't used to believe in it.
