[W126 Coupe] Clearing up confusion about the "new" MBcoupesmailing list & web forum

[Mister McGoo]

Oops.  
I am assuming that I may join the discussion over this present MBCoupes.com email site.  From what Dan has said, this site has glided along pilotless and unmonitored for over 5 years.  That being the case, it has flown remarkably well.
I am also assuming that when Dan states that the "great majority" of readers objected to Hein's comments, dozens must have contacted Dan off-line because I only saw three or four comments. (I have deleted all so I can't remember them off hand).  
"Rude behavior"?  Hein's comments?  Are you serious?  Hein??? 
A few years back I recall a couple of e-mail outbursts of most vicious insults being traded casting doubts on each other's legitimacy and referring highly graphically as to one's mother's chosen profession.  No one feinted.  We're all grown-ups.  Are the participants still participating years later?  Sure.  
So now given the choice, personally I'd prefer this site to continue flying pilotless.
