Thanks, I appreciate it. April 11th is also the day the Team.Net domain
was registered, so it is a birthday so to speak.
Some of the recent additions to the list may not be aware of the
situation. This list does not just appear out of nowhere by magic. It,
along with currently 37 others, comes from a computer in some guy's
basement, that guy being me. The basic foundation was originally only 2
lists, an autocross list and British cars. Back around 1990 things sort
of happened and from a nebulous beginning in Usenet's rec.autos
newsgroups it evolved over the years into what it is. At one time there
were about 70 lists, the machine in my basement was sending out a few
million emails a month. The FOT list was set up in December of '96 and
is still going strong. It makes me happy I am able to keep it on the air.
