Sure, but the server will strip them off. This mailing list uses the
latest 1996 technology, listserv.  It also has found over the years
that attachments are evil. Text only here.  You have a pic you want
to share? Find somewhere to host it and send the link. We'll find it.

Everyone else does, so why not? Try to make them items that would be
of interest to the Vanagon community.  This is not the place to sell
Fender guitars or Maytag washers. There are better forums for general
sales. If you color too far outside the lines, someone will let you
know. Then they'll let ME know and I'll have to make decisions (which
I HATE!) as to whether or not to let you know. (If you get my drift....)

<http://gerry.vanagon.com/info/etiquette.html> IMHO, the last four
are the most important.  Also, Friday is traditionally the day when
one posts the less Vanagon oriented posts. If No Vanagon Content
(NVC) please ask yourself if this post REALLY will be of interest to
a thousand or so diverse folks.  If you're not sure, don't. If you
are, please preface the subject with "NVC" so that the six or seven
hundred folks you were wrong about can easily sort to the bit-bucket.
(Please note that "Friday" starts after midnight Thursday in YOUR
time zone and ends at approximately 12:01 AM the following Saturday
morning.)

Where?  Oh... Coyote's page...  Dunno. You'll have to ask him. I know
that it kills my browser. http://vanagon.com and http://
gerry.vanagon.com are two very different places. I have no input to
vanagon.com and very little to gerry.vanagon.com website.

Uhhhh, okay. <http://marsrover.nasa.gov/home/index.html>
