I just had my first notice of Charlie MacArthur and it occurs to me that
biographies of such EV pioneers are needed. Gone are Charlie, Bob Rice,
Bob Beaumont. And, of course many others. Bob Beaumont does have a
wikipedia page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Beaumont
though it is sadly lacking in detail.
Wikipedia seems like an ideal place to put such things.
Being a student of genealogy, I frequently lament "I wish I had
extracted that information while it was available!". Speaking, of
course, about dead people. The time to accumulate information is while
the subject is alive.
Currently living EV pioneers whose lives and contributions should be
documented would include: Otmar, Jukka, Bruce, David, Lee, Roland. Wayne
Alexander, Mary Ann Chapman, Gail Lucas, many of the sadly banned drag
racers (I know, only the subject is banned), and numerous others. Being
a relative newcomer to EVDL and EVs, I lack the knowledge to compile a
comprehensive list.
I notice Roland has been silent for a while. I hope things are well
with him.
Does anyone else have an interest in preserving such history?
