Dear Mods,

I've had a sticky in the C5 General section for probably a few years now, and it's so big and cumbersome that it's too difficult to update. My problems have been because of the limits to how big each post can be, the formatting syntax and the inability to use tables. All these problems have kept me from updating that thread for almost a year.

I've been converting it recently to the Google Documents and Spreadsheet format lately, and plan to collaborate with a few members here to update it. Occasionally I'll copy over final revisions to my website and link to that in my CF signature and maybe in the top of that sticky too.

I'll be putting up a personal website soon under my name, and I'll have a Corvette section that I plan to put this under. I'll probably call it the "Corvette Bible" because of the detail and sheer amount of information, and there's still a lot more I'll add to it.

I wanted to make sure that doing this would be okay with CF because I am going to use Google Adsense on those pages, and may make a little money off of it. I'm not selling any products or services, and don't have much control of what ads show up, but I still wanted to make sure this would be okay with it. To be perfectly honest, if I keep adding to it, keep polishing it and weed out any copyrighted information, I'd try to get it published, but it'll be at least a few years away if ever.

If you'd let me know, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!
