Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Ferrari Content - Please

[JAshburne (JAshburne]

Not trying to start a political war here, but let's be realistic, does  
anyone really believe that algore is not far left in his politics?  Sure,  if 
one 
is leftist leaning themselves, one might agree with his views, but  
realistically, the only viable political figure these days more left than he is 
 Hugo 
Chavez.  Not that there is anything wrong with being a leftist (even  though my 
views are 180 degrees opposed), but do not deny that leftist is what  he is.

PS  Having been on this list for 11 years, I feel that I am safe in  saying 
that an opinion about algore is NOT what caused Bighead to leave.   It is more 
the fact that the list seems to have exhausted itself in Ferrari  content and 
the core posters feel comfortable in commenting on other aspects of  life, not 
just "Oh, I just drove my Ferrari today!" or "What should I look for  in 
buying a 328?"  As burning as those issues might be to someone new to  the 
Ferrari 
experience, there are gigabytes of information and expressions about  those 
topics posted in many different places on the web and to many the  repetition 
of those topics here is just as boring as yet another gabfest about  watches, 
guns or whatnot.  The inbox might be almost empty of FList posts  for weeks and 
then someone will ignite a thread about a NFC topic and everyone  comes to 
life and the list is filled with a hundred posts in two days.
 
I, too, would like more direct Ferrari content, but let's face it, we  
already have so much more information about Ferraris available to us that can 
be  
accessed via a good search, it really reduces the need to repeat it on the  
FList.  On the other hand, this core group of people have a common love for  
Ferraris but also realize that the friendships that have been formed here are  
much 
deeper and more complex than that single hobby.  To me, that is a much  more 
fulfilling kinship, but that is just MHO.
