Funny you should mention a lot of this stuff. This is exactly the type of
stuff currently under development for the next generation Tigers
East/Alpines East site. It will be located at www.teae.org. If you go there
now all you will find is a placeholder but I will tell you it's gonna be
great! (I gotta get out of this sales racket it's screwing up my mind)
However, with that said....I doubt there will ever be a club that is as
valuable as what this list has evolved into. I consider this goup to be the
single most valuable Alpine resource in existence.
God I love you guys! (sniff sniff)
