Thanks for stepping in, Frank. I was about to jump back in, but I'll
refrain now that you've made the request to drop the thread.

I'm  going to start off with no, it's not tough. When a thread gets too
far off subject I generally let it go for a bit until several people voice
complaints. So let's drop this thread now -- it's time.

That being said, if you read Ted's post it does stick mostly to the
subject of government regulations against the car hobby. He does mention
government regulating even God, but it wasn't totally out of context -- he
was making the point that government can (is in his opinion) get too
involved in our daily lives. He did make some of his views on government
plain, but I don't think he was being too rash with his opinion. We all
have one, and some will disagree with others no matter what. For the most
part the post was old car hobby related in one way or another.

Eddie posted the original message. It's not directly AMC related, but is
old car hobby related. It's not too far off topic to post.

We should limit discussion on non-AMC related topics though. Post it if it
is old car hobby related, discuss a little, and let it die. If it goes too
far or I see too many complaints I'll ask that the topic be dropped -- as
I'm doing now. I expect to see a few more posts until everyone reads this
then it will die off. So please be patient if you see a few more posts --
in 2-3 days the topic should be cleared.
