Meanwhile I actually posted to a real, bonafide thread on some real Shelby subject matter.
It's not like I'm posting stuff just to get my post count up.

Oh, wait a minute ...

acknowledgement for those that have been around for years and years instead of just starting everyone over in my opinion
Do the SAAC membership lists exist from 1975 onwards?

From what I understand, no. There wasn't any point in keeping track of who used to be a member back then. Membership lists were just updated periodically and basically used for mailing out the newsletter/magazine.

If you expired, you didn't get one 'cause you weren't on the list anymore.

As a matter of fact it might be that it took 30 years before Rick figured something might be going on? OK, OK...maybe 25 years?  :)

I think he figured out right away what it felt like to be babysitting a bunch of misfits. His stint as a continuation high school teacher probably helped.

I think this is the ghost of CaptDave haunting this Forum?

It's just a continuation of his useless postings.

I'm going to get the Witch doctor Bob Gaines used on me to make it stop.

I should have known he would return to haunt us all? :'(
I'm not CaptDave but yes, this thread was a useless posting.

Just having a little fun and trying to lighten up the forum.  Especially after such a historical loss of knowledge and information.

Thank goodness I'm no longer the dreaded "newbie"  ;D

I'm not sure if having my Member being called Jr. is much better than being called Newbie.
Than again, having it called Full ...
