RE: [T3] Stuff

Are you implying that we have a mandantory group philosophy???  That
scares me....

I would tend to trace this back a trifle farther that the internet
(although they were both around in the 60s). But to some extent I would
go along with your idea -  that whole VW mentality is traditionally not
for profit.  The internet has a old and crumbling tradition of free
intellectual property-  something that has ALWAYS been free and not for
profit on the list too.  (Of course, if Jim wanted to start charging a
penny per answer, I would pay him...)  

But the day VW parts and such are run on a not for profit is the day I
stop paying $700 dollars for Ill-fitting rubber.
