Greg.... one of the 6-Pack Forum Off Topic posts a while back was about
participant age and we've got them from the early 30's to late 70's.......... we
even have some with their kids helping to work on their car.
As to response time......... I haven't posted a question to the Mail List in
quite some time so I don't know how quickly people respond............ on 6-Pack
it's usually a matter of minutes but always within an hour.

It does seem as though traffic is down, actually I think activity is down on
the other Triumph place a frequent, British Car Forum.  Unfortunately if
things slow down too much either everybody leaves or most leave but a hard core
few.  I know Kas Kastner has a forum that is pretty slow, and I think six
pack has one two.  If you have to wait a day or two before you maybe get
an answer to a question you are probably going to look elsewhere.</span>
