Yo, Tom (off List)

I just recently signed up for the Fly-In list...don't recall getting this
information before.  Maybe you know this, and maybe those that have been
with you from the first know it, but newbies need more routine reference
in
a mesage that something was not passed on (such as whether the full
message
is available in your archive part of the site, or elsewhere - with
appropriate reference to access).

Just a suggestion...information (and experience) flows both ways.  You
can't
afford to routinely kill the bearer of bad news unless you have a sole
source situation which you can count on always remaining so.  I believe
each
of us, in our own way, wants the experience of Ercoupe enthusiasm to be as
good as it can be; and nobody knows it all.

Regards,

William R. Bayne
