His answer was "without computer programmers, who know html, we wouldn't have a forum. Well, we gearheads, survived without computers for many years, and our forum was getting together personally, and always respecting each other and appreciating each others cars.

Neither Gearheads nor IT professionals made this forum. The people that created this forum are simply
Corvette Enthusiasts These enthusiasts are what make this forum great!

These forums are a great medium for people to interact, however, sometimes a few individuals ruin it by acting a bit childish. Its really hard to interpret if someone is laughing with you or at you sometimes.

If you feel that the post I made in the chat room last night was childish or rude then please accept my apologies.

Some people have asked me why I have such a great interest in the hardtops. My interest is in all Corvettes, but as an enthusiasts, collector, and tradesman, I am trying to highlight certain aspects of what makes certain cars more interesting to collectors and enthusiasts. And, the 1999 is the first nonremovable Corvette with a trunk ever to be built in Corvette history. I find this exciting. It's not better than a coupe or vert, or Z06, its just a first in Corvette history for its body style, and probably won't be appreciated or recognized for years to come. But, it will add a piece to Corvette history.

I can respect that you feel that way and I love my car as well. But with all due respect your preaching to the choir.
