Hmmm, looks like Tech/Performance is leading as the appropriate category...

Democracy brought us the new section...so I wonder I'd democracy can be used to determine possible content..

I swear, I'm not trying to cause trouble... :

Let the Spin Doctors begin.

It may be leading but it doesn't have a majority of votes.
As can be seen, over 60% have voted against having it only in the tech section, by far a majority.

You would have had a better chance if only 2 choices were given.

BTW...we are NOT a Democracy in this country or on this forum

The forum is closer to a dictatorship. We have no real "voice" in it. Troy is the Supreme Leader and what he says goes.

George Dana is the Prime Minister that carries out the wishes of the Supreme Leader.

Grandsport,

I don't mean to be rude just frank. You should be in the garage bondoing your top and tuning the car rather than running up everyones post count with this.

Olivier: Thanks for the nomination to be moderator of the tech section
But I think they have enough already and I'm having too much fun reporting posts that don't belong there to the bosses

We (the USA) are NOT a Democracy. Whip out your school books (the ones that were actually accurate, not the PC ones they are printing today) and you will see the the form of governement of the USA is a CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC. When you pledge allegiance it's right in there

"...and to the REPUBLIC (not Democracy), for which it stands..."

Since Troy is THE Final and ONLY word on the Corvette Forum,
he is probably closest to a dictator than anything else.
Hail Troy!!!!
