Howdy,
May I add a few items of explanation regarding Dave's comments
on the Chrysler 300 clubs.
The two Chrysler 300 clubs formed independently of each other
and within about a month of each other many, many years ago.
They have remained separate ever since and there have always
been numerous joint members belonging to both clubs.
It is true that there were a few influential members starting
back at the beginning who had personality and/or standards
conflicts and although efforts were undertaken throughout the
years to unite the clubs, that has not yet happened. One of the
polarized principals in the situation has developed other
interests in his life and is inactive and today the two clubs
are in closer contact with each other than ever before.
Additionally, everyone has gotten older, wiser and aware that
the need to preserve and promote the history of the Chrysler 300
Letter Cars MUST override the personal. Both clubs have
significant strengths and probably 97+% of the members of both
are fully amicable with each other.

SNIP:
To relate this to the list a bit more, I think that Russell's
email about Leslie
Howard was -not- meant to embarass/coerce/insult Mr. Howard in
any way, but
rather was meant to inform our group about the extent of the
problems occurring
in the NDC at present. I was unaware that any such problems
existed. It seems
though, that they have gotten as bad as the 300 Club split of a
few years back,
where some folks won';t even talk to others because of their
membership in a
'rival' club. Hopefully amends can be made soon with both
factions and a
peaceful resolution to their debates will be found.
-Dave
