OK, OK, OK, enough of this.
I do believe that we need to band together now to insure parts  
availablitiy and other forms of support.  I need glass, and fwf for my  
kit.  i have not yet joined the club, but you can be sure that i will  
now.  There is power in numbers.  Steve's bulletin board is wonderful  
and i am looking forward to its growth.  That seems a good forum for  
the club and i i hope it can be integrated one day.  There is no need  
for bad blood between any of us.  We are all on the same team, and i  
don't believe anyone is here to make a runaway profit.  There are much  
easier ways to do that than at $25 a pop.

I think i will be going to Oshkosh to meet some of y'all and see  
hopefully a nice flock of Europas.   Erich, i would be interested in  
hearing about the cost of joining you at the house.   I will be there  
with my woman from thursday or friday through sunday.  We were planning  
on camping but she is not too keen on that.
Perhaps i will email you off-list.

Best,

Tom Paul
