   When you buy from Sweetwater, they assign you a rep?   
   Or is that a marketing research-related call for their benefit?

   Anyone should be able to open and close the door any way they want without   
   encountering trouble from the mechanism.   
   If they do - THAT'S BAD ENGINEERING!   
      
   MACHINES ARE SLAVES, NOT MASTERS!!! They Must Always function accordingly!!!

   The minivans I drive also stop their motors when that's done...but, one can   
   still operate the doors manually.

   Machines canNOT think!!!   
   But at least living persons can, even if they don't.

   But HOW do we IDIOTPROOF the so-called 'engineers' who come up with this   
   INSANITY???   
   My approach would be to FIRE THEM so fast that the door does hit them on   
   their way out!

   Stupid 'engineers' - Honda should stick to motorcycles - at least they know,   
   or did, how do do that right!
