I will assume that this is a total mistake.

However, I think I can speak for most of us on the List in saying this.

The list seems to have become crowded with responses to postings. I opened
my email this morning after being away for only 2 days to find 383 emails in
my box, most of it from the List.
With all due respect, please keep your whips and whims to a minimum and
directed towards the specific poster unless you strongly believe it truly is
something that we can't live without. This List is crowded enough with the
important stuff, not to mention our own daily ejunk. For example; the photos
of the Spherical Bus Sculpture were interesting but the mass of little whips
that followed wasn't really necessary. Please try to reply to the sender
directly with these responses. It will keep all on the list a lot happier in
the end. Thank you.

I'm on the Chevy 9C1 (police car) and Impala SS lists, with about 1,600
people subscribed combined. I know of 20-30 people who are looking for
dealerships to put money down. Everyone else is interested, and generally
supportive.
   As i hate Pontiac styling (too much side cladding and bad-taste
grilles/spoilers etc.) I am waiting for the 4 - door instead, leave the
styling intact and make it a Chevy, please.
     I'm under the impression that the 6 speed stick is the Borg-Warner
T-56,
used here in the Camaro/Firebird among others. What's so bad about it? The
annoying 1st-to-4th skip-shift can be disabled in under 15 minutes with a
plug-in module... - Ed
