[size=150]It appears some folks never give up and their lot in life is to cause problems.
I received an email to join "Yellow Power" which appears to be similar to ACMOC.

Maybe I am wrong but it appears this is more of the savage 16 attempts to sabotage ACMOC.

My 2 cents[/size]

Hi, D4Jim.
You are correct, Sir. I have also received one of these e-mails. If they don't know what I think of them and their activities now, they are even more dense than I currently think they are. And THAT would be an achievement.

Just my 0.02.

You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.

I got the email also, for $1200 a person can be a life member. What if they get torpedoed like was tried here and it fails, will they send the money back. Who gets the dues if they fail? I got nothing against anybody but I sure will have a wait and see attitude on this. I guess I like old machines more than I like people.

Hi, Old Cats.
At least old machines won't deliberately try to undermine you.

This is the first i have heard of Yellow Power.Looks more like a Cat info/forum site rather then a physical club?.In my opion the ACMOC is the only club for vintage Caterpillar and this forum is the best by far

Hi, Folks.
Congratulate me. I have just received an e-mail from this mob telling me that I have been unsubscribed from their mailing list, at my request - - - - after I had sent them an e-mail with some 'fairly UN-ambiguous' comments on their outfit and the people in it.

I got one too, they are going through the entire member directory.

Maybe someone should form a "Concerned Members of Yellow Power" group and spam everyone about holding a meeting to attempt a takeover.

yes there is some familiar user-names involved over there. 1200 bucks and be a life member how stupid a life membership is an honorarium normally bestowed by a club on a member for there out standing long standing service to the group and by this i mean decades. buying a membership come on. generally the membership is given towards the end of the members life knowing they wont be around much longer so the club wont be footing the bill for long and its really a thank you and more symbolic than anything. same with honorary and gift memberships a thank you and you hope the person or business being honoured deicides to continue the membership themselves.

besides if they got 100 members and they each took that option thats only 120 thousand for the kitty which wont go far. clubs rely on the members paying dues to fund the club and its activities.

"i reject your reality and substitute my own" - adam savage. i suspect my final words maybe "well shit, that didnt work"

instead of perfection some times we just have to accept practicality
