Howdy everyone,
we're on the verge of making the new list/web thing happen--we're
within $100 of the $920 for the first year!
I would like to enlist the assistance of a couple of volunteers. I
have over 20 megabytes of T3 list e-mail from the past 14 months or so
(since this list was created). That's many thousands of messages
altogether. If you've been around a while, you know that a number of
questions (lowering, water leaks, f.i., alternator conversions, dropped
spindles) come up quite frequently. We're going to take some of the "best"
threads/discussions from this list and make them available on the web
(index & searchable), and make them available via e-mail using
auto-responders. This should reduce the amount of repeat discussions on
the list and will provide a wonderful resource for listees and non-listees
alike.
But I could use some help sorting through the postings.
If any of you would be willing to receive a mail "folder" full of
several (or many) megabytes of messages & sort through it to look for
useful, concise, and informative threads, please drop me a line. It would
be helpful if you have access to and familiarity with e-mail software to
the degree that you could easily handle the huge "mailbox" that I send or
have you download. (I will send posts compressed--as they contain all
text, they compress to about 1/4 of their original volume!)
So... if you'd like to sort through, say, a month or two of T3
e-mail all at once and skim the cream off of the top, drop me a line & we
can coordinate.
