To Gary's credit, the issue may be the amount of spam mail a small
business gets and how impossible it is to keep up, especially after it
accumulates over a number of days. Email has become less reliable for
business due to all the spam. I get about 150 emails in my box a day of
which 145 have to be looked at and deleted. That's 1500 in 10 days. If
Gary's workload and typing speed are anything like mine, by the time I
have sorted out the junk from the real mail a higher priority often
comes along before I can finish answering al the legit emails. Spam
filters help but they occasionally treat legit mail as spam and have to
be closely monitored as well. Faxing may get better results. That's
all the time I have for email right now. Got to get back to finding all
those Forward Look parts.

I was going to say something like that as well, but restrained from
doing so since I have no experience in doing business with Gary. I
guess if you make stuff that people need and they can't find it
anywhere else, you can do business just about any way you wish. At
the same time, I guess I'm kind of jealous. As much as I'd like to
tell people where I work now to just get lost at times, I know I can't
if I want to continue working there.
I think maybe he could at least maybe set-up an e-mail auto-responder
so people know to try again later.
Just my opinion.

Don't contact Gary by email for at least another 2 weeks. And if any
of
you have sent him an email during the past few days, resend it in about
2
weeks. I saw Gary at the Newnan GA meet this past weekend and he
told me
he wouldn't be back home for at least 2 weeks and he was just going
to hit
his delete key and start over.
Anyway, my H took Best of Class and also Best of Show - lettercar
division.
