New Technical/For Sale Topic-Tools

Postby algirdas » Fri 21.07.2006, 05:23

Dear Doug, Sy and All Others in Positions of Authority and Responsibility with LEC:

What do you guys think about starting a topic called "Tools"? What brought this to mind were Geoff's and another member's comments about bolt thread restoration kits. I naturally assumed everyone was using them, that they were yesterday's news and everyone would know what I was talking about. I got mine at Sears and have been using it for years. Absolutely invaluable.

Just an idea.

Sincerely,

Algirdas

We could certainly have a section dedicated to "Tools", but you'd have to moderate it Algirdas!

Dear Sy:

I do not know what is involved in "moderating" the topic, but if you believe I have the capabilites, I would be honored to so do.

But I would also like to point out that I am, in all practical respects, still a newbie to this site and I do not have anywhere near the cachet of many other members of LEC such as Monty, Dico and John W (John W is absolutely brilliant though his comand of the English language leaves a little bit to be desired :D ). If you believe that they would better serve as moderator, please by all means have them, and not me, serve as moderator.

My interest lies in doing what is best for the LEC. Remember, I can't even "right click" my mouse because my mouse only has one button!

Sincerely,

Algirdas

It seems that something has been lost between my English sarcasm and your Baltic (I can't remember if your background is Lithuanian/Latvian or Estonian)/American understanding thereof.
I thought maybe the :wink: would give you a hint as to my attempt to 'razz' you.

Dear Sy:

You know what they say about us Lithuanian-Americans. We may not be the tallest trees in the forest, but we sure are the most dense.

If you would like for me to moderate, I would be honored to so serve. With the warmest personal regards, I remain

Your Humble Servant,

Algirdas

I'll set one up - but it'll probably be tomorrow morning - OK?

Dear Sy:

I hope someone tells what I am supposed to do as moderator. I have never done this sort of thing before.

Yes please.

Algirdas

You really don't have to do anything. The section was your idea (and an excellent one at that), so I thought it only fair that you could take some ownership of it.
This also reflects what you've done for the community and the fact that you're so willing to cross the pond to come see us little old Brits so regularly!
