Hi everybody,
It looks like it's time to make another suggestion for the "millionth" time 
again.

There are many, let's say, at least 10 CORSA members who are quite talented. 
Not to exclude anybody else, but let me explain. These talented people are 
first, retired. Next, very familiar with Corvars and most aspects of Corvairs 
including technical and performance, plus racing or driving knowledge. Also these 
people are fairly well off, so that they are healthy and free to spend time 
on what they want. Lastly these people can write. Yes they are experienced in 
the English art of expressing one's self.

Ok, you get the picture. I could mention names, but you already know many of 
these people already.

Now look at the other side of the story. There are many, let's say more than 
10, important Corvair projects going on around the countries and world. 
Experimental projects, restoration projects, racing projects, engine projects, 
flying projects, development projects. Much technical stuff. Many people are 
working on exciting stuff. I won't waste time listing these, but you already can 
name several yourselves, I'll bet.

SO, WHY DON'T WE ASK SOME OF THE PEOPLE IN THE FIRST GROUP TO GO TO WHERE THE 
SECOND GROUP IS DOING THEIR "THING" AND HAVE THEM DOCUMENT WHAT'S HAPPENING?  
That is, have these talented people write up the stories of what the second 
group are doing. And then publish these articles in the Communique.

All it would take is someone to coordinate this activity and twist a few 
arms.

What do you think?

Regards,
Bob Helt
