One more time this has just gone to prove many points. One is that it is all about the proverbial $$$ and not the hobby. It is proved when friends turn against friends. Whoever is the culprit, it does not matter as it is working like a charm. Not only did it make a member of another site go to great expense, time and danger, but it also has once again made friends of this site turn against one another and tell them to go away. Regardless, this once again has made it a win/win for the instigator. These sites have become more about mud slinging, name calling and accusations than about friendships and cars. What a pathetic society we live in.

Sometimes I feel like I cannot show a car at one show because I am guilty by association and then I try to show at another and I am not allowed because I have shown the car at the competitors site!!!! No wonder we are loosing members, special and unique cars remain in hiding, people are afraid to share their stories, literature and parts, and members are selling off "certain" cars so they are no longer associated. They too may feel guilty by association or simply don't want to be associated with certain makes. The car and the general public are the losers here not to mention the history of the original name such as "Harrell". It has even gotten to the point that I cannot post an opinion on a site because I then am accused of bashing or being an expert. This crap needs to stop. Only men can stop it if they quit acting like children.

Someone out there is heaving one h*ll of a drunken laugh on all of our behalfs and it may not even be a member of any of the three sites but someone who is tired of going to the movies and decided to sit in front of their computer and have a laugh at our expense. Why do some programers create worms? Think about it and grow up! I already feel like I can no longer post on the other two sites for speaking "my opinion only" and am starting to get that feeling here as well. I guess we will see where this post takes me.

We all must get back to the hobby at hand. Go to shows and events, meet new friends, learn new things about the history instead of running around seeing who has the best gossip and the most mud.
