Mal -

I haven't been online much over the past few weeks, but upon checking in this week, I was very pleased to find that the content of the user-driven Owner Registry has DOUBLED since last spring.

I agree completely with your wish to have everyone add their cars to the Registry, but there shouldn't be any flack from anyone about adding their car(s) to the Registry. Here, each member can be as open or private with it as they like.

(However, I was disappointed to see that one member appears to have come back and stripped out all the info from his entry - except for the year, series, condition, and a picture.)

The only real problem I see is that this thread, like any other, will drop off the radar as it becomes inactive, and newcomers might miss it.

Therefore, I suggest each of us try to welcome newcomers with cars similar to our own and remind them of the Registry. Of course, we don't all have to pounce on everyone who joins; I've seen that kinda of stuff run people off in other venues. One reminder should be enough.

I think the Registry will become quite popular as it continues to grow - another one of those things that will snowball.
