Default RE: Might have some info soon.

Not intending for this to get out of hand, so I'll try to clear up the intent in my post.

If you live in a community and someone new moves into the neighborhood, apprehension is natural .... especially when they make (what I felt were) accusatory, suppositional, and insulting statements about someone "already living in the neighborhood" within four days of their moving in. Hope you understand what I meant there.

There have been a few "goobers" that appeared in the forums recently that slung crap within a short time of registering. Again, apprehension is a normal reaction - especially considering how they tend to "upset the apple cart" very quickly. I don't post often, so I have to feel strongly about what I'm writing or responding to.

Many of us weren't privlaged enough to have access to the resources required for flight lessons (or the like) when we were young - or even now, for that matter. We haven't shared opportunities equally because of financial resources available to/from our parents. As Jeremiah said, that only makes us different, not better or worse than each other. We all have limitations - intellectually, physically, and financially. What we do with the hand we're dealt is the most important thing in life. We can be positive and set a good example for others, or negative and draw the ostracization of others. We all have handicaps (some are more noticible than others) and have to deal with them throughout our lives.

What we DO have in common is a love for the car we've come together in this forum to discuss. If we can do it in a manner respectful of each others' opinions, abilities and limitations, the discussions can be more productive and positive.

On that note, .... anyone know the words to "Kumbaya"?
