Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Clyde:Let the debate begin

[cjromero (clyderomerof4]

Gentlemen this has been a great debate it was civil and very informative from 
my point of view 
It truly shows the diversity of this list and this country I might add
I realize I got the juices flowing in some of you and that's a good thing!

Happy holidays to all and lets use the list not only to learn about our 
wonderful cars and love for them 
But also to express our thoughts as gentlemen about issues that effect us all!  

All the best gentlemen
