 Ben & others.....
	No offense meant to anyone,

	Most groups have their rabble rousers, this digest not excluded... Most
of what I see is good natured ribbing, since we are sort of a community.
Anyway, it's all Richard Welty's fault.

	If Richard hadn't set up this damn digest, we wouldn't have the problem
with bitchers and moaners and opinionated weenies who either
intentionally or otherwise offend. 

I ignore it. Scroll past it man!

If Richard hadn't set up the Digest, I also wouldn't have: 

- -Samco hoses from Brad
- -advice on my clutch job 
- -the joy of Fred Di Matteo pissing off every newbie :oDDD  
- -Superflex bushings on my 168 
- -For that matter, I wouldn't have a 168! Thanks again Chisheng!!
- -Milano parts going all over the country
- -help from Bill Bain when my Milano was hit head on in Atlanta.
- -new friends in Santa Fe.
- -the guts to drive an Alfa around the country.
	and so on and so on....

Get the idea?

	Perhaps we should all step back and think about what it would be like
without this wonderful resource. It's a gift. I would be in trouble
without it. 

	Thank you, Richard, for this wonderful digest. For the folks who don't
like the 
pebbles in the road, your loss. I'll take it just like it is, thanks.
