If I hear one more mention of documenting facts to be published about anyone, I think I will throw up. Let's drop this nonsense and get on with the AMC hobby.
And yes, the space shuttle did blow up, Elvis is in fact really dead, JFK is not living somewhere as a vegatable and AMC did indeed go out of business because it no longer sold enough cars to stay in business not because of some big conspiracy by other auto makers. We are supposed to be talking about a bunch of funky old cars that for some reason, most of us seem to be very fond of although it appears that we as owners are equally funky judging from our behavior on the list of late.
So let's get over it. Colin has generously given his time on the list and now wants someone else to run it. Frank has volunteered so more power to him. I didn't exactly see a stampeded of other volunteers as far as I am concerned if he wants it let him have it. As far as his publishing AIM goes, who cares. Anyone ever hear of Sumner Redstone or Rupert Murdoch??? No, how about Steve Forbes or the Hurst clan? They all had or have mulitple media outlets and so far our daily lives have not been terribly affected by that and I am certain not one of those folks, despite thier massive media holding has ever rendered much harm to AMCs.
By the way, if someone wants to compile a list of facts about me I am sure there is plenty of fodder out there to make it interesting to some folks. OK, before that list comes out I might as well admit that I sometimes peed in my bed after I stopped wearing diapers around the age of 2 years old. I knew it was bound to come out sometime so I figured I might as well get it out in the open before I was outed for such abhorent behavior in print. Whew, I feel better about myself already!
