Brent,

my opinion...

I regret the lack of syncro and Subie conversion discussion on this list,
for me it makes the vanagon list poorer.

Most of the postings to the vanagon list don't interest me in the slightest
- for example anything to do with automatic transmissions, A/C, air-cooled
engines, and of course the inane "hey look at this ebay item" or "UPS are
crooks" or "<insert other various stupid rants here>" type postings

<g>

So I delete the messages I am not interested in and read the ones I am
interested in. Its no great hardship.

(The beauty of having all the subjects in one list is rather like the old
card catalogue system in libraries...during the search you accidentally
stumble across a non-related item that is useful.)

Anyway, the list is not as useful (to me) as I think it was/could be.
Splitting it further would make it even less so.

Alistair
