I agree on both points. I belong to several forums for a variety of
topics. It is just too time consuming to go out and find nothing of
interest or value. The m-list is simple (like the TR) and easy to view,
reply, delete.

Nope, pretty much all were because something broke. Don't have much
experience with forums, aren't they basically "pull" technology - you have
to go there and see what's new? I like this list because it's a "push"
technology, if something is new it comes and tells me. Embedded
photos/graphics would be nice, but including a link to a photo sharing site
is easy enough and keeps the size of the messages small.
JMHO,

"If it ain't broke..."
So all you guys with gear reduction starters, with aluminum radiators, with
thermostatically-controlled electric fans, with five-speed gearbox upgrades,
with rear main seal replacements, with radial tires. You all replaced those
because the originals were broken? None of those were upgrades because
better technology was available?
I doubt it.
The list is useful. But it's antiquated and almost non-functional in a
graphics- and photo-oriented world. I appreciate the dialog and the
information -- best in the TR world. But the interface is antediluvian. A
modern forum would be much better.
