To All my friends and Detractors,

Scott, I would nominate several others as well. Having been a part of the 
Sunbeam family, particularly Alpines ( though I own a Tiger), since 1979, I 
too am getting fed up with the NEWBIES insulting any list member they care to 
take a potshot at. 

I believe I have a substantial amount to contribute to the Marque and the 
list.

I received a private email suggesting that the "Old Guard" fragment off into 
a private list. Security access, secret handshake, ect., ect.,  taking about 
a jillion years of combined knowledge and experience along with us. 

When your FUN interferes with someone else's FUN, it isn't FUN. It's a 
distraction from what our mutual interests and goals are. Just because YOU 
FEEL like taking a pot shot, your membership on this list doesn't grant you 
the RIGHT to do so.

Also, just because you read a book on the history of some obscure Rootes 
Fact, it doesn't grant you the omnipotent position of the Grand Suer. It may 
stroke your ego to rip someone else's head off because they didn't know "the 
exact thread count of the third screw of the left handed boot retainer clip 
of the 53 Talbot Saloon", but honestly who cares??? If it's such a problem 
respond directly to the member and don't BOMB the rest of us with your 
whining. 

Recently the Tiger list, which many of us cross subscribe to, went through 
this same crap. 

Do we need a sargeant at arms to keep the peace?
