Re:  Comments about AOL guys.

Go easy on the AOL'ers. There are two Miata forums slogging
along on AOL, one under the Road & Track banner, and the
other under Car & Driver. Traffic only averages a few posts
per day, but the topics are lively. ANy AOL'ers who subscribe
to this group have to be really dedicated to take on the mail
load this list can generate, especially at the $3.50/hour
rate charged by AOL. Yeah, AOL gives you the first 5 hours for
$8.95, but with the user load they have, 50% of the time you're
waiting for a cursor or a screen to download, providing that
you didn't get a busy signal on login. (I'm glad I don't need
AOL to access this mail list). ANyway, the AOL'ers like
miatas too.
