Just my 2 cents..... I personally did not make Carlisle this year due too more important issues other than vehicles and I'm about 10 minutes away? However I have been there for many many years not only involved in the Volvo community but in the Saab community as well. I know ladies/gentlemen there from all the groups, but the folks I know are just totally enthusiastic about cars not political aspects. There are many great products and deals to be had there ,not too mention communication lines created from such a great gathering. Carlisle is a huge gathering from all over and the license plates justify such and sometimes freak me out knowing that such a gathering was created in basically my backyard. I personally like to stay under the radar, V/S for some reason has hooked me and has become my site of choice for Swedish cars. Charles is the operator of this site and I respect his decisions, agreeing with them or not. They are fair ones from what I have witnessed however many others I know nothing about! As part of the OH moderator crew I feel like we are council under the administrators for this community and Charles has made his decisions on such as he sees fit. If I think he is unjust on a subject posted, I will call him on such, which I have! This is his site as I see it and if personally you do not like it, you always have the option too leave? I share my knowledge freely here ...I sell no products and financially gain "nothing" from this site. I do this site because I can and enjoy doing such, I have the option too leave at anytime as well. I really enjoy seeing the pictures and hearing the feedback from such meets. Whether it's on the east coast,west coast,north,south,freakin Guam I don't care. Deep down I will always have a passion for cars and Swedish ones at that. So enjoy the site, respect opinions of the operator and the community thoughts. ;)
