Ladies, Gentlemen,

Where is this list going? I come home to over a hundred messages a night; with for me little content. I am an enthusiast, and have owned many VW's, I mean many. But, this list is getting to me. I share these thoughts: ========== and one of the most annoying things for me is that we get about a dozen of these gripe posts when one would do. BTW i enjoyed the license plate posts! your friend and list brother steve

Back for another twenty [DELETE]'s

If this keep's up, I'm unsubscribing. I can read this same dribble in DIGEST mode; but why? Its the same dribble. I'd just delete it all anyway.

Regards,

Another Steve

EuroVan Guy (NuVi & Crew) My real name & address is above, send me hate mail if you like, BUT DO NOT JAM UP THE LIST WITH IT, PLEASE!
