I;m so saddened to hear this. Ray introduced me to contour.org. How we hooked up was a story in itself. Seems Ray would surf on over to the Detroit News web site and answer their weekly cyber polls. One week they printed his response, complaining about lack of good technical help from Ford about his vehicle. I e-mailed him back on a whim assuring him that some folks inside Ford Motor did care, and tried to answer his questions regarding mods to Sofia as often as I could. This was just before I bought my Mystique in early '99 and he had a lot of good input for me right off the bat about the Contique's quirks. We exchanged quite a few e-mails, but not many recently. Now I know why. God Bless you and keep you, Ray.
