Re: [BaadAssGremlins] AMC Owners Participation

["Eddie Stakes" <eddiestakes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Doc I don't know if I would call it beating a dead horse on trying to get 
people out there and volunteer and participate. More like banging head on 
wall, but head is like armadillo, sort of tough.
There is a file somewhere on my site about all the failed 'AMC Ideas' 
espeailly those that pop up like herpes on the internet, and everyone 
sitting behind a keyboard say 'wow, let's do it' but then never sets down 
the $5 Starbucks to do it. Even with being stationed in Korea, and now 
Afghanistan, Frank Swygert is still putting out AIM magazine and still 
posting on amxfiles helping people now THAT is dedication in my book.
