Thank you Frank.

I am on the list to learn more about Vanagons, and am interested in
modifications to gain increased performance, reliability and usefulness.
I also like the community aspect, even though I might never interact
with some of the list members otherwise due to opportunity or geography.

I got a kick out of the link because it was in a Vanagon and I applauded
the On Topic loophole. Much too much smoke & Fire about clamping down on
offenders- we should police ourselves and not have the List Admin
swinging into action.

I think there would be very little 'adult content' sent to the list,
less so after the public outcry. Isn't that enough? Don't folks get a hint?
