[Oletrucks] Fools and Funding

[Gale Gorman]

Well I did do my part with the funding last week when the solicitation popped up.

Well first I stand corrected. I thought this was an off-topic message that would be frowned upon my Miq the list boss.  Miq runs a tight ship here. Then my buddy Wayne clarified things and informed me that the author of that message was actually quite active in the management of the ole trucks list.  With all the off-topic but interesting discussions of late, I was bracing for an admonition from the boss to keep it focused.

Huh?  I don't understand this response.

I've been doing Team.Net for many years, and I know there are lots
of folks out there who may subscribe to one list and have no idea how
many there are.   For instance, working on these old trucks often
involves rust repair, frozen fasteners, plumbing a shop for air lines
and such.  How many of you are aware of the Team.Net shop-talk
list that discusses such things, as well as lawn mower speeds, keeping
out the mice, aiming your TV antenna, etc.  A rather intereesting
collection of gearheads, in my opinion.

And often folks assume that the one list they get just appears by magic
and do not understand there might actually be some human being who
keeps it all going, keeps the computers running, pays for the network
line and ISP charges and such.

Enough for the moment, I don't want to get too preachy here.
