A picture's worth X words and a video's worth X+ when somebody's trying to
diagnose a problem - or even just show off their upgrades. Recent
discussions about the meaning of "engine turning over" come to mind.

I believe it was Sudhir that started that page. I'm pretty sure that the
first wave of members actually were all members of this list, and it was a
useful way to give context to the names we'd see in our emails.  Of course
we have no convenient way to tell when we add someone whether they're gerry
list members or not. I suspect that in that regard it's becoming just
another Vanagon owner's group page.
