Bashing... for the most part the list is pretty good about it, pretty
low key. Our mailbox from the website though... try this on for size,
straight from the bostig mailbag, now THIS is bashing(I've placed * to
help keep it cleaner ha):

you  people really need to get off of that dope! you are almost as bad
as that *sshole kennedy @ KEP (engineered ?) with his "subaru"
conversions. I will admit that cosworth is really  good motor(I prefer
rotax myself)but it is not the answer for the vanagon. A vw TDI  would
be better  but a real  man would  have to have  a 911agon nothing even
comes close! I personaly have  built five of these wonderful vehicles
(try a 3.0 SC motor in vanagon syncro)and there is nothing else that
will compete. So please go to some N.A. meetings and quit f*cking up
perfectly good vanagons with you putrid  pinto fag motors.If you do
not change your evil ways you will rot in hell alongside that *sshole
kennedy(and believe me when I tell you he will not shut his mouth
-chrisbadboy"

My reply was simply:

"Wanna race?"

Guess I'm going to rot in hell. Shucks.

And Benny, stop telling us you're emailing from the beach, it's mean.
