I agree but only to some extent. It would seem that through some common
connection that we are all related as some sort of extended petroleum
family. and with that in mind that these parsable ramblings are
unconsciously personable because of a common bond we all share. And with
vw's it is even more prevaliant, but not everybody has that kind of
freetime, when I first subscribed a couple months ago the list flooded
my E-mail at work and I don't have any time at home to read through the
quantity so I do understand where your coming from, now I'm on digest
mode and much happier. All I do is scroll past the unwanted text even
with my meager sys. <read: dinosaur> (p100 runnin 16mb office, i.e3.0 ,
thumbs+, inbox, & terminal emulator<work> continously < some more progs
sporatically> ) with little difficulty.
My only peeve is when replying to a post that the orginal is kept full
length and can get quite long or how bout all of the html rich text that
doesn't filter through and doubles an already long post with illegible
text content.? most don't realize this junk text for it looks fine on
their machine viewed as html or whatever?
And spellin' is dysfunctionally fun, most all are not typists or
overly anal just plain joe's with a VW and a PC to try to connect with.
Many may not understand either or only one and not the other. Just read
last friday's post on a universal european language.
And to Bulley I do commend your Flair. Mark hits it to point . and
where would we be without ARI ? we do personify VW'S in this day and age
, As for me I'm 26 yrs home owner and planning to start a small business
restoring these vw's some (many) older than me (11/71 vintage )
OH WHAT A GREAT COUNTRY THIS IS
could always digest / unsubscribe and ask ?'s to list request reply to
p-mail for specific tech help probably quicker than digest. but no
CULTURE !!
well enough of my ex-lurking psycosis ( no higher ed for me )
live long and strong maybe your VW is lookin for a role model 8>)))
