Ian,

Your comments probably reflect what all of us on the list believe but
seldom express.  We have owned our 1991 Westy since late 1995 and other
than a year when we were overseas, we have been on the list.  I may not
post often, but I read almost every message and have gained an incredible
amount of knowledge.

Everyone you mentioned and so many others have at one time or another given
us valuable advice, assistance, and friendship.

I can honestly say that without this community we would not have enjoyed
our Vanagon as much as we have and taken so many great adventuresome trips.

Thanks everyone,

Harold
