I'm touched.

Just picked my copy up and read KS' comments. For those who haven't......

"One of the fourms I frequent most is ddk-online.com - the Uk based Porsche forum primarily for fans of pre-'74 Porsches. It's a fine example of the forum breed, with very few public disagreements and a lot of good humour. Most of all , it's an invaluable resource for anyone seeking useful, unbiased information."

In all seriousness, to see something like that in print and written by a Motor Journo and Author of Keith's standing (about 5ft 2? :lol: ) is much appreciated. I've spent many an hour over the last 20 plus years reading KS' output in magazines and books and feel rather touched :oops:

Keith's right, it's an absolute credit to the participants on this forum that moderation is hardly ever required and that the banter and resource material is so rich.

As a girl once said to me: "its not what you have, but what you do with it?"

Hey, Mr photographer (Mike Usiskin) why don't you shoot the thing yourself, even for our entertainment?

(don't worry about the noise: I can still hear it ringin in my ears :roll: )

Aaaahhh, Bootsy. I feel touched, too. But then you always did have that kind of reputation.

PS – I only wrote the truth. I know that's rare these days for a journalist... :lol:
