True.  It does not work as well as it used to.  OK, on most lists, not at
all right now.  He is working on that.

>He always wants server $$ donations

I don't think that's fair.  He asks about once a year, and his verbiage is
really easy on the consciences of those who don't kick in for whatever
reason.

>yet never answers questions.

What questions do you want answered that he won't answer?

How many questions has Yahoo answered for you?

>No files, calendar, or photo sections either.

No advertising banners, no attachments and no autodial problems.   I'd
trade.

OK.  I've been happy with the way Mark does things for 11 years.  He's
running over 100 car lists and he has always seemed to do things with the
car guy in mind.  I guess I'm loyal to him because he stepped in and saved
the autox and british-cars lists, and has added just about any list that was
asked for since then.  You think Yahoo has any connection or loyalty to the
sports-car community?
