FWIW, I have not been an active contributor, and also have been not dealing
much with our Vanagon for a number of reasons.  But that's changing and I
would hate to see the list go away.  I set up a dedicated gmail account for
getting these messages (love the search function), and had not checked it
in months and found last week that I had been unsubscribed in April due to
a non-response.  But that's all fixed now (unlike the never-ending fixing
of Monty) and I hope to be able to continue to access the collective wisdom
of the owner/operators of these vehicles across the world.

I don't know nuthin' about no best place for such a collective... FB (that
would not work well for me), perhaps a Google group (but I don't know the
limitations on number of members, etc.)...  I'll let that up to the
wonderful people that have been keeping this Vanagon community on the
interweb.  With many thanks.

Mark
