Agreed to all below. And, coincidentally, Steve has been a great help to me
and my nephew over the purchase of a BJ8. Without The List, we'd have had a
MUCH harder time buying the car.

Subject: [Healeys] list quiet
Hi Guys, I feel I also need to chip in a bit here. This list has been a
great resource for Healey lovers. And it goes back to a time when many like
us all of a certain age were barely comfortable with the whole online
experience. Yet we made many friends that otherwise we would have never
known in far reaches of the world. It bought us together to talk about what
we love. Yes we miss people like Rich Chrysler but would many of us have
even known him if it wasn't for the list? I would also add Roger Moment who
isn't mentioned much any more, I have had many conversations with him also
in fact he would ring me for a chat rather than use the list. A guy on the
other side of the world who wanted to chat about Healeys. How does that
happen. What the list has done is open us all to the smaller world of the
internet and many have kicking and screaming moved to social media like
facebook, which is ok as long as you know how to use it and what to ignor.
But I put this to you. Via this list I got to Know Steve Byers. He is in
America, I am in Australia. Yet he put in a huge effort to secure a Nash
Healey bonnet for me. Never seen him face to face, yet I ended up with a
bonnet I had no hope of ever getting by myself. there are good people here,
they are the value of this list.
Cheers
