Stu, Thank you for what you do. No offense intended, but this is my perspective:
Mike, I have lots of stuff on Google drives. This does not make it Google's property. This email list, in support of a brand of sailboats, is a Community of people who share a common passion. I personally do not think one person should own, control, and profit? from the experiences shared by many, for free, in support of a brand of sailboats we all love. God forbid something happens to Stu, but if it did this list would evaporate unless there is a succession plan that I am unaware of. Stu does not own the intellectual property on this list and does not own any part or version of the actual C&C brand to my knowledge. If anything we should be sending money to Rob Ball, Cuthbertson's family, etc. for the designs they labored over and executed so well. Cloud storage is *storage*. That's all. I have asked twice about what it costs to run the list. An answer hasn't been provided. Thank you.
