Subject:      RoadHaus Thread - can we just drop it?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Everyone,
So many messages about RoadHaus, whether Larry asked or didn't, whether you should donate or not. C'mon, let's get back to business here and drop this debate.
If you want to donate, do it.  If not, don't -- it really is that simple.
I've personally met Larry, and he's inspired me to keep my Vanagon running and use it even more than I do now (it's my daily driver).  As for whether or not I've given him any money, well, that's between Larry and me really -- it simply doesn't matter.
Meanwhile, I will enjoy my '91 Carat with working and COLD A/C here in Florida.  My son and I are going camping for the first time EVER this weekend -- mom is coming out on Sunday for her big day.  So, as my family enjoys our Vanagon, I hope you enjoy yours.  Despite all the money spent (over $900 just for the A/C!), the hours under the darn machine and the worrying as I travel across the state, I'm hopelessly addicted to this infernal machine.  Just like many of you, otherwise we wouldn't be here, would we?
(Note: as a certified GEEK, I'd sell the Van before I sold my laptop :-)  Let's enjoy life, it's far too short to worry about this little stuff.....
