I can add to this, I think mechanical fuel pumps look better and are lot
quieter than those noisy electrics. < insert laugh here >

P.S. On the matter of on-line versions of the Communique magazine. The same
people that would share the on-line version are probably scanning the thing
now and sharing it already. Let worry about attracting more and younger
members and that would solve the shortage of money. There's an old saying that is
"attraction rather than promotion." Personally I the my Corvair to local car
shows and that's about it. I do not autocross, YET, or attend any other Corsa
function. I did attend my first National convention in Detroit and plan on
making it to Ventura. I feel the only benefit I and using is the monthly
magazine. Is it worth the yearly dues? I don't feel it is. But I know it's the
right thing to do. We do need CORSA around but we need to start attracting
members more than promoting it. We need to have something they want. Strong
arming them into joining will only be the failure of the organization. The last 2
Corvair clubs I've belonged to we had to search for Corsa members to be
recognized by Corsa as a chapter. That says something. I am a CORSA member and
will continue to pay my dues. I just hope the good ole boys see that we need
some big changes and soon. AND no I' not running for office, just voicing my
opinion. I wish I had the answer but I don't. But I think that we need more
input on what changes the membership wants to see.
