The newsletter problem lies squarely in Don's court. He has not responded to
my e-mail, & I see from recent posts, he has not responded to anyone else.
Based on the happenings at the Florida meet, my personal opinion is that Don
is not good at follow through, & we will never see any more effort from him.
Anyone live close to Don in Florida? Ian, is the NJ V8 mafia still in
business in the South? Perhaps a personal contact will work.
Failing that, Dan, can you publish via the internet as suggested?
Dan, do you have out of pocket costs we, as a group can reimburse you for?
Speaking only for myself, the value of the Newsletter is far greater than
the subscription cost, & I don't mind spending a few more bucks if that is
what it takes.

Donald,
Unfortunately, I can't do anything about your dealings with Don R., nor can
I
give you a refund (Don R. holds all the money), but if you will give me your
postal address, I'll see to it that you recieve a copy of the spring issue.
The reproduction quality of the spring issue was not all that I would have
liked for it to have been, but I think it was a good issue nevertheless. The
copy I will send you will be printed by me, on my own printer, rather than
by
a print shop in Florida, so the reproduction quality will be good.
Also, I will see to it that your name goes on the subscriber list for the
time that you have paid for if you don't get a refund from Don, and if I can
get the subscriber list from him (refer to my previous post on this
subject).
My apologies for your bad experience,
Dan Masters,
Editor, The British V8 Newsletter.
