In an effort to redeem myself and remove my foot from my mouth I offer the following: At 18,000 miles, I adjusted my valves (required minimal adjustment on 5) and replaced my plugs(OEM/NGK's). It is hard to believe $40.00 and 3 hrs. of knuckle busting produced such remarkable results - idle smooth, V tech snappy again, rev matching easier and precise and improved gas mileage. In summary - incredible fact - 100,000 mile plugs may still spark after 18,000 miles, but there is a subtle deterioration in performance you can't appreciate until you change them! Food for thought.

He did however invent the cat door!

If the cat is indoors when you leave in the morning, and inside when you return in the evening, it had to go through the cat door an even number of times; the same number of "outs" as "ins". (This assumes there's no other way into or out of the house.)
If the cat is indoors when you leave in the morning, and outside when you return in the evening, it had to go through the cat door an odd number of times; exactly one more "out" than "in". In particular, you know that the cat went through the cat door at least once.
(There's a good deal of sophisticated mathematics which relies on observations like this. I have taught liberal arts students how to prove Brouwer's Fixed-Point Theorem (an important result in topology) by starting with cat doors. Seriously.)
