Nice job!!

The 240z list is a small group of guys that doesn't want to wade through all the stuff on the site or worry about lots of non-Z content. 99% of all messages are related to the 240z in some way. No need to open the web browser, just small conversations in email. -- Mike

The long-nosed Z was created for 'testing' purposes and isn't a production model. I found a magazine with the article between flights one day. I'll look for it.

That doesn't really tell us much. Perhaps the new owners don't know how to do it? Or, if Chloe came down with a fatal disease then her relatives might be running it. Who knows...

Hi guys, here's an update. Sorry about the list but it went down when the server was reformatted. I am working on getting it back online, but, the mailing list software is a bear to configure properly with our new system. I am having difficulties because we are now set up with "virtual" accounts and making it work with the mailing list software is not that straight forward. I'll pull out my toolbelt and get it going again soon. -- Mike

I agree with you. It would only take a second to introduce themselves. However, consider this. Perhaps the new owner does not know how to use a website like ours. And, perhaps they do not understand what it takes to run the business like Chloe did. Who knows. Anyway, we have no idea if it has been sold or what has happened. So, all of this discussion is purely speculative. Hope nobody reading this thinks this is what happened. We are simply guessing at this point. -- Mike

The max image size for the photo gallery is XGA (1024x768 in pixels). It's measured as width x height. The forum attachment limit is the same. You can download many graphics programs to resize images (I noticed a link was attached to this thread).

Hey guys, I don't know what's happening with Midwest Z. But, it would be nice to know some kind of status update. However, I don't believe it is the responsibility of our members to find these answers. I encourage those of you who are concerned to wait for answers rather than continuing to send emails or phone calls. If there is a new owner, it will be a big job to take over and continue where Chloe left off. If this is the case, we will hear from them soon. If not, we won't hear anything and life will go on. IMHO, I hope things are OK with this situation. I can only guess that something tragic happened to Chloe to stop so suddenly. She had a strong niche in the Z-community and all of us appreciate a good business like this. -- Mike

Kmack, thanks for the comments! Actually, there is method to my madness. I usually start out by asking nicely. I usually do this so I can prove to users that I can be a nice guy as well as prove a history of 'chances-given' when I start to kick some arse. I think you've seen me with a backbone in the past. Just ask a few of the other kids in here. And, speaking of your comment about 'a classroom full of kids'.... I thought most of the members of this site are adults. I'll have to go back and check the age on a few of these guys. I am going to put this thread back into the general public to let people know what is happening and how threads like this can cause a site like ours to go South. It kinda hurts to hear comments against myself or the website when I spend countless hours keeping the site functional and/or adding new features. Anyway.... on with the show............

Guys, this thread is full of nothing valuable to the Z community. I'm closing the thread.

Guys, girls, Carl.... please stop pushing buttons.
