Default Great people

I would like to thank all persons involved in this site for keeping me going. If it wasn't for the folks that tell you what they have learned from experience, I would have to endure it myself. You have made my life a lot easier, still greasy, and I do thank you all !! Model A is years ? away, but I'm very happy today ! Thank you !!!

Hi Patrick,

Over twenty-Four (24) hours passed, and no comments on your "Great People Post"?

In retrospect, and to break the ice, seems like the humble, brave, and sincere people asking Model A questions, and returning to report findings are just as equally Great People.

Example:

Suppose from tomorrow, Monday, May 14, 2016 through May 14, 2017, nobody was brave enough to post a Model A question ............. followed by no replies to no questions for (365) days ............ hmmmmmmmm ?

Just trying to let everyone share in feeling like Model A "Great People".

I have learned much more from this site that I have ever been able to contribute. For that I am extreemely grateful.

And I believe that May 14 falls on Saturday this year. However, the "tomorrow" part was correct.

Always appreciate Mr. Chauvin's detailed remarks!

Thanks for you responses CarlG and H.L. Chauvin !! Love working on my Model A and it's a bit of therapy for my mental health also !! Carl, I'm coming to Anchorage on the 31st and leaving on June 14th. Friend by Anchor Point has a cabin on Cooks Inlet "Whiskey Gulch" . Little fishing and a lot of looking. I was there 10 years ago, but I'm still stoked !! Bringing two friends from Tennessee with me and they are super stoked ! P.S. Mr. Chauvin, I would never have caught the date error if it wasn't for CarlG. Thanks, Patrick

This is a great forum. And it has all kinds of folks participating. If one has a problem with a Model A, this is the place.

Thanks Mr. CarlG, nothing like a non-intended typo to attract attention ..... at work today and it still feels like Sunday ...... means I will work two (2) Sundays in a row with only two (2) days in between. LOL

What also makes it interesting is we share Model A knowledge and have great respect for all Model A friends on a Global Scale ........ no matter where one's Model A is parked ....... overseas ...... and/or ....... everywhere, above or below the equator.
