Miata Mailing List: February 1999, Message #172

Welcome Cheryl and Mitin!

First point:  Welcome to the land of the Miata!  We hold nothing against
those who happen to have a Vette or two in the garage!  They make for good
training of future Miata drivers everywhere!

The second:  I thought I was the only pinhead on the planet who owned a
Miata and a pinball machine or two!  I just hope I don't begin collecting
Miatas - they are a bit more than pinball machines!

Enjoy!
