Hi,
Yep, I agree with everything you said. Bob's email to me, in part, stated "The unfortunate thing about the H2ML vs. that "other" web forum is that, not long after the H2ML became really active (around the time the H2 came out) a flame-war developed between two members. This went on for a little while before I was able to put a stop to it. I think the H2ML lost many members to that web forum as a result. The H2ML has been very peaceful and has been serving its intended purpose (the exchange of information, knowledge and experience about the H2) ever since. I'm hoping those "lost" members come back eventually."
Again, let me reiterate, Bob has been nothing but very nice to me and has answered all of my emails on a myriad of different subjects. And finally, why did all of this come up, well, my other car is a Toyota Spyder and there is an EXCELLENT web forum for Spyder owners (spyderchat.com) and my original email to Bob was to ask him if he was going to consider changing the H2ML to a web-based forum versus an email list (my IMHO, is much less user friendly than a web forum such as this). I also told him that I wanted to register hummerchat.com to host the forum but unfortunately, hummerchat.com is already taken. When I did approach Bob with the idea, he pointed me to this forum and that was it. But, it would be great to only have one place where all H2 enthusiasts got together to discuss things. The more people, the more information, etc.
Thanks,
Matt
