Interesting topic. This could be like "tire wars" in which there are two sides.


I appreciate the fact that technical information can be distributed digitally. However, the weakness with the photos site is that there's no good way of cataloging or grouping the information. The superior way is to place the material by subject on a website where it could be accessed more easily.


That's easier said than done even with the information that does exist "in the wild" (Gene understands that term).


In fact, Gene wrote to a few of us asking if we'd take on that task. Honestly, I'm willing to participate in that activity but I am, in no way, willing to take it on as a single task. WS, ES, Gene's site, Billy's site, and a few other all have great information. My question is, however, who is going to take over the posting of this information after Billy and Gene are no longer able to do so. It would seem there needs to be a plan. For this reason I champion the clubs making it available and keeping it going with some perpetuity.
