I second the big shout out to the people who made (and make) the list server a reality. Also, I personally have benefited from it greatly, which likely would not have happened in a forum format, so I'm very happy with it. I believe for our size group it is the most appropriate and helpful structure. Shannon Steele

Hello 300’ly to All!
I have read all the entries regarding the pros and cons
about changing our Club list server mode of operation. I belong to several
other car clubs for Chevy SSR, Ford Thunderbird, Hellcat, Challenger,
Cadillac and Corvair, all of which have the Forum and Thread set up.
I really appreciate the way our Club list server is organized. One has to
hunt for threads, get key words in search for threads, scroll through forums,
etc. which is cumbersome and always gives me the impression that I am in an
informational black hole and miss things. In our way of doing things it
gets out to everyone at the same delivery and they all have a crack at it and
increase the chance for responsiveness to queries. Plus a lot of
times in forum mode an issue will be out there and will remain for years with no
updated responses. Many times I will open our list server and find
requests that jog my memory or hit on something I recently dealt with in our 300
life and can respond positively to help a club member. The other type of
information organization pigeon holes things and limits exposure. I prefer
the way we have it. Also, on the journey to the forum discussion, I think
it is of upmost importance that we be very mindful of how fortunate we are as a
Club to have our Electronic Communications Committee do all that they do
voluntarily and with great care and diligence. Also communication is
monitored to make sure that our list server guidelines are followed. They
do a fabulous job and give of their talent and time tirelessly. A majority
of these list servers I belong to have many times unkind and arrogant responses
and have a great tendency to develop threads that are not related to the
vehicles but stand as forums for discussing social and political issues. No
thank you. Keep our family alert and responsive to our queries and keep
the exposure open to all our minds by placing it on our doorstep. More
exposure fosters the participation of many minds of great experience in a kindly
fashion. I prefer not to have our club drive to the forum. Rob
