<< The sad part will be when they don't care enough to recognize our cars as
 special at all.  I really enjoy teaching young people that come around to
 gawk a little about LBC's and truthfully they seem appreciative and willing
 to learn.  Considering the lack of opportunity they have to experience these
 cars it's no wonder they don't know what they are.

An important point larry.  Our LBCs transend the march of time.  If we
oldsters (no offense!) don't show the kids the attraction of real sports cars,
along with the knowledge to keep them running and the responsibility to drive
them safely, there will be no next generation to take them into the future.
We should take the time to show them off, and to talk to the kids at the auto
shows or in the neighborhood.

To all you young pups out there on the list, keep up the good work.
