[Tigers] list inactivity (owners age)

I'm the second owner of my '65 Tiger, for 43 years now.  I autocrossed it
for 6 years before deciding that it was worth saving and moving on to a
series of competition cars for autocross and SCCA Solo I (now called Time
Trials).  I've given up the comp driving; but I still have other toys, so
the Tiger doesn't get doted on very much.  At about 105K miles, it's
essentially stock, the British red paint still shines (but on a quiet day
you can hear it fade), and it runs better than its owner.  I'm 72, so most
of you "old" guys won't get much sympathy from me; but I do enjoy - and
still learn from - your posts to the list.  I receive the list in digest
form, and it's a rare day that I don't receive at least one.  Thanks to you
all, and keep posting!
