    Just my 2 cents because my Fox is not flying (water damaged & rebuilding). C enter of lower 48 states is 2 1/2 miles outside of Lebanon, Kansas. Yea, I h ad nothing better to do today than checking out middle America.

    Subject: Re: Activity
    I've monitored (lurked) and enjoyed this list for several years now, but there hasn't been much activity. I also monitor & participate in the TeamKitfox site. I understand the nostalgia for lists like this, as I used to participate in information sharing lists in the earlier days of computers, with nothing more than a "smart" keyboard and a 300 baud rate modem. I'm building a Series 7 SS (my 2nd homebuilt). I get a daily email "digest" from both sites... it's not at all difficult to set up. I think I would appreciate this site even more if there was more current activity like there evidently was in the "old" days. It's also a little frustrating to have to wade through multiple duplicate messages when users don't seem to know how to "clean up" a post with the delete key. Another thing frustrating is the occasional post that contains nothing but a bunch of undecipherable code. The TeamKitfox site is more modern of course, and I appreciate the relative ease of posting pictures right along with your message for instance. There is also a lot more current information from builders being shared now. Again, I like them both, and I contribute to Matronics during the fund drive. The AeroElectric connection Matronics list is also one that I like. Some might ask why I haven't contributed more posts to this list myself. I guess the main reason is that I spend too much time on the internet as it is, & I try to concentrate that time where I get the "most bang for the buck".
