I kinda like the existing signal to noise ratio: some of the noise can be

just as fun as it is "pointless".  Most of the diversions that arise from

time to time provide intersting insights into what *can't* be called the

mindshare of the collective; it underlines the fact, that while we may all

have our differences, we can work under, around or over them to enjoy our

little roadsters.



It also provides more impetus for "smelling the roses" along the way, and

more grist for my occassional Lincoln/Douglass diatribes.  By the same

token, I guess that's why I subscribe to Car & Driver rather than AutoWeek.



Best,
