John, take a deep breath and try to relax a bit!  From what I have read on 
this list, friendships are formed and it only natural to want to share other 
experiences from your life with your friends.  I see nothing wrong with going 
off topic occasionally to see what other interests are represented by these 
"Oletruck" folks.  How hard is it to use your delete key when the subject 
plainly states that the e-mail is "off topic"?  It is more irritating to me 
when a thread has strayed so far from it's origins that the topic has changed 
yet the subject description has not changed for weeks!  I could receive mail 
described as "AD fuel tank trouble" and open it to find a discussion about 
the proper air pressure for the tires on a '58 TF.  If I had no interest in 
the AD series, I might overlook this message while my '58 continues to be 
troubled with flat tires!  Simply changing the subject line could have saved 
me a call to AAA.
