On the 09/04/97  23:11, Paul ranted to All...

 Hello Paul, 

 PE> 10:30pm. They took the bloody knob off my gearstick!  It was a red
 PE> knob with a redback spider in it.

 I bet the thieves got a hell of a fright when they say the
 spider.

 PE> Fortunately I have a spare knob.  I
 PE> hope (it's in the glove compartment).

 That's a funny place to keep your knob. You keep the durex in
 the glove compartment, and your knob safely tucked away - not the
 other way around.
 
 PE> P.S. I want my car breakins detected.  Please give me details of
 PE> technology totalling less than $400 that will alert me (SILENTLY! [to
 PE> the thieves]), so that I can take some action (including calling 000). 
 PE> The thieves won't be expecting to end up with someone so obsessed with
 PE> thief catching instead of deterrence.  BFN.  Paul.

 How about a silent trigger that will trigger off an ultrasonic
 sound generator that will rouse every dog in the neighbourhood
 into a barking frenzy.

 Dieter
