John:

I can only speak for myself, but the list would be a lesser resource without 
your insights.  I believe you are the only list member that was actively 
involved (albeit primarily from the sales end) in the production of these 
cars and I have found you to be a veritable fount of knowledge and lore 
about the cars that we all love.  I am not sure where Nolan discerned 
"attitude" in your original note, nor did I find your reply to be 
provocative or offensive.  Maybe Nolan is having a bad day.  Anyway, stay 
subscribed, please!
