[Healeys] FACEBOOK

[robertduquette at sympatico.ca]

The way I see it is that this list is for people who are primarily interested
in Austin-Healeys and may digress.
I see Facebook as primarily acquaintance based ( family, friends ) and is also
used for "similar interests" which could include Austin-Healeys.

I don't think that one replaces the other.  ( and, I prefer the Spridgets and
Healey lists to Facebook. )
