Not exactly accurate, but glib and typical. There were other reasons for not making the suggested changes and the gentleman suggesting the changes edited the directory.

Steven,

Your statement is absolutely accurate, though I think you meant "couldn't care less". Actually, the process for producing the directory was different this year (as mentioned above) and several people work pretty hard to insure the quality of "Comments". The process for the directory will be changed next year to insure better quality, by the way, if you'd like to volunteer to help (same pay as all of us!), let me know. We care a lot, thus the hours spent.

Personally, I feel it far more important to update the club store. Just crazy not to be able to call the fellow, but requesting all the credit card numbers to be sent by post is sheer lunacy in today's world.

Anyway, I'm sure the club will address this eventually.

I haven't looked at mine.

Can you cite something specific? Page numbers or sections?

They have the continental sections and Lincoln sections. And they mix and match where marks are showed under the Lincoln part and not the continental. And it's over all years since the Mark iii and it's not that all Mark iii. Or Iv are under the Lincoln part but they split them just shows being amateur In a club that should know beter this is for a full year 12 months and so it should be correct I could have it fixed in 1 day and that shows how much the LCOC does care

I got mine and was amazed to have to scroll through 83 pages of garbage to get to the membership listing.

It may interest some, but I see no point listing every car that has won every trophy since it's inception. If this must appear just list the current winner.

I wonder whether its possible to offer the choice of disk or USB stick as a USB would be easier to travel with and you could download the list to - for instance - a MacBook Pro like mine which has no disk drive.
