Gentlemen, Paul, Jeff:

Please, put aside the bickering and realize that you both provide a wealth
of information for the Triumph enthusiast.  I used Paul's site as a resource
just last week with my alternator conversion and am indebted to him for
taking the time to publish the information.  Jeff, you know how I feel about
your site, and make the TTG a daily stop.  I have even had the TTG as my
'home page' on occasion.

My point:  Just as our cars are rare and appreciated by a very small
minority of folks, it is even more rare to find a website that has useful
material to reference as well as providing or presenting the information in
an easy to navigate format.  I applaud you both.  I find your sites, and
only a handful of others to be the premier sites for Triumph owners.  I'm
humbled by your Triumph knowledge, and additionally your ability to publish
such a professional appearing site.

I thank you both, and hope you put your creative talents back to work on the
task at hand: TRIUMPH AUTOMOBILES!

Mike Nelson
Omaha
