<VV> The Corvair Decade

[tkalp at cox.net]

Great Idea Joel,

We could even have all our members send in the Convention registration money, plus what they would spend for travel, room and board to CORSA and instead of having a convention CORSA could invest the money into a market fund and get a great return on the members money.

Going further we could put the entire CPF inventory up on E-bay . . .

Sometimes we get the COR$A in front of the Corvair.
