Hal I missed the post you referenced, but know full well of what you speak. It is interesting to witness the "advanced degree" on any subject, that many people receive from their own return address. I'm sure that the average owner of our cars is a classic type A. But there are some of us that did not wake up knowing it all, and welcome the help and advice of our fellow gearheads. I am fortunate enough to have several performance cars and follow the various web sites dedicated to each. When the "elite" and or "police" take over the sites, it goes down fast. Sorta like when a gang takes over the neighborhood. Witness the number of post vs the number viewed. Then look at how most post are from a few. When I first got involved in CC in 1999, the post were from the knowledgable and were just that, historical and informative. No pretence, just love for the car and sport, and desire to nurture others. Now, it all seems to be about the rabbid opinions of some, with little support for the newbe.
