Alright fellers, let's keep our cool.

It's just wipers after all.

I'm trying to be civil, Bama, but I've never heard of wipers being called "wings" much less windscreen wipers. Or windscreen wings, for that matter. Bush has a TSB on everything else, lets see a TSB on this.

you probably use REAL rubber ones TOO ! <i got your TSB right here !>

Alright, Bush, now you've gone too far! There was never positive proof that the synthetic blades were better. It was inconclusive. As a matter of fact, the synthetic blades were shown to be very sensitive to sun light, where the rubber blades held up better, as long as it didn't rain. Consumer reports did an extensive test of wiper blades in the november 02 issue, if memory serves, and also found that shorter blades did not remove as much water as longer ones, all things being equal. Do you realize that Mary Anderson invented the wiper blade in 1903 and patented it in 1905 for Ford Motor Company? The rubber ones were good enough for Henry Ford, there good enough for me.

The 22's work fine for me. The extra little bit it keeps clear was right on the money.

I wasn't tryin to make a fuse about it, just thought others might be interested.

It's no big deal.

I thought we were talking about windscreen wipers?
