Theo, thanks.  I now remember seeing this somewhere, but memory faded.

With all the talk of the true value of the Tiger, there is nothing like 
exposure to the general public for more appreciation of this car.  

I came off of a British Car Day show here on the east coast, and as 
normal there were tons of MG's, TR's, Jag E Types and assorted other 
Jags, Rovers, Lotus, but very few Tigers, and this is the norm.

So the message is, Good Show, and we Tiger owners will have some of the 
overdue exposure for our cars at a nice venue.

Larry
