RE: [Chrysler300] listserver rules

["christopher beilby" <thelastbestgenius@xxxx>]

As perhaps someone far away (Australia), may I offer hopefully brief comment 
re the listserver use, and also 'what is the purpose of the 300 Club', both 
these I believe core issues for the Club.

1. Certainly the occassional high volume of mail takes some extra time, but 
as others have said it is often/usually worth going through.
It would/may certainly help sometimes if they are better subjected, 
therefore those only interested in their particular letter can just delete 
all those others. Personally I often find the extra, non initially specific 
letter, related stuff most informative - others who love only their letter 
may not, and as responses already have said, all they need do is set their 
site to auto delete any they do not want?
2. What is the Club's purpose, now in 2004!? The original (genuine) letter 
cars are now nearing 50 years of age. It will be a pity if the Club wishes 
to just be a tech/information/register supply source - part (unavoiadable?) 
of the cars is now many things - the story about their creators, and now 
after many years of ownership, perhaps also any worthy characters who have 
owned them, titbits, stories, about the/some/many cars since left the 
factory etc. !?
I certainly agree it is important cars be kept authentic, and the Club 
(rightly) warn or discourage from modifying cars irreversably.

One area the Club has I believe left itself open to criticism for is not 
taking a more formal hard line of dissapproval against DCX for re-issuing 
the 300C name on a car perhaps not so worthy of this particular letter that 
shgould have meant more/most to the/our (Club) guardians of 300ship?! As I 
have said before, DC could still ignore the Club, but at leastr it would 
have been formally said. If the Club is not to try to be the protector of 
the 300 image/legend, who is, can?!

Sorry to add to the volume of mail, but here from such a distance it is 
difficult to attend meets, be involved, in more normal ways. The early 300s 
were/are an important part of 'cars', and are still something special, a 
realk joy to 'enjoy' if set up properly - do not undersetimate this, these 
cars, in a world that nowadays too often seems more confused, less certain.
