Where Did Everyone Go?

It's SITES, not sights.

But the one thing that really irritates me about you is what you did
to Joan. You need to give Joan her money back. I saw the pictures of
that half-baked "restoration" you did, and the bottom line is you
ripped that lady off. She never even got to drive the thing, it was
never finished. And you held the car hostage, overcharged her by an
order of magnitude, and never delivered the services.

Be a man. Give Joan Her Money Back.

I'm working on a Porsche 924 right now, but I still read the group. You're
right its been slower and slower each month.

I still have and support "ramva.org". That's a bit of promotion.

Occasionally I get asked how to connect to this newsgroup. I reply and do
what I can to support the community.

I'm sure it has to do with the growing number of sights with fourms I
belong to half a dozen or so and keeping up is not something everyone
has time for.

The other thing is winter and economy.

Is there any promoting of the Ramva? Sorry I tried but the people keep
being attacked.

And if it is the drama over me all I can say again is stop creating it
with the lies. I help with info and much more in other fourms with out
all the drama. So learn to play nice.

Hey Funkie, I'm a Porsche mechanic these days They pay ME to wrench
on them

Congratulations on the new job. Sounds like fun work and you get to do it in
the sunshine state which is even better. Eventually I'll graduate to a 912
or 911. I figured I would start out with something cheap and water-cooled.
This car is made up of VW and Audi parts anyway.

Neighbor and friend has an 84 turbo carrera.
Won't let me near it.
Just before he moved here from CA he sold a 56 speedster.
He just rebuilt some kind of porsche engine. Did a little hot rodding
on it.
Trying to figure out if it will fit in a bug.

I still occasionally pop in to RAMVA. Problem has been that my previous
ISP changed newsgroup server specs a few times, and work banned anything
but Lotus Bloats .... but I finally have a new stable, non-Time-W ISP
and rebuilt my PC, so hopefully I will see lots more of y'all.

Didn't you accept donated parts from Mario recently? I would say
that's a sign of encouragement for the douche bag to keep showing up,
even though the donation was likely stolen parts, given Mario's
widespread reputation as a conniving, dishonest son of a bitch.

I asked for a donation from anyone who had the parts, and he happened to
be the first to answer. I did accept the part and it arrived and
turned out to be in the condition described. Successful transaction ended.
I have no means of checking if it was stolen or not, and there was no
time to waste. I don't see motive for dirty play either, since money
never changed hands. He only lost in the deal, never asked or received
anything in return.

I, too, still lurk from time to time. I have the Time-W service, so I
use google groups. Man, the group activity now is nothing like it used
to be 9 years ago! I'm not complaining- it was too hard to keep up
back then.
