    Subject: Coming Soon - The List of Contributors - Please Make A Contribution

Its my way of publicly thanking everyone that took a minute to show their appreciation for the Lists. Please take a moment and assure that your name is on that List of Contributors (LOC)! As a number of members have pointed out over the years, the List seems at least as valuable a building / entertainment tool as your typical magazine subscription!

    Isn't "leakguard" the stock tubes Van's sells? I'm still finding they lose about 10 psi over 2-3 months, so would rather go with something less leaky.
