Gene,
Bert is going to think I am making this stuff up (okay I did get carried away with the patchouli oil and incense--that was tongue in cheek,) but believe it or not as a 4th year med student in the late 80's did a rotation at York Hospital with an ID guy with an Italian name who was nothing short of brilliant, one of the best rotations I ever had in med school.
But, my brother is the auto expert that ran his own garage in West Virginia back in the 80's, and I was the gas pumper, tire changer/balancer, oil checker, window cleaner, and manned the till, but my guess is rear drive shaft joint went out.
I don't remember the exact intersection, but loved the area.
