Gordo: Another item I should point out, I have exposed my e mail on just about every post I've made at YT in the past 5 years. Never really get any spam, scam, etc. worth mentioning. Oh I hear tell of old Akmed and his buddies once a month, nothing serious.

One thing I do get is a lot of e mail from legetimate tractor owners with problems, looking for answers. In all cases I advise them to get involved in discussions at YT, and many have. Just seems like they need that little push, encouraging them to type something on public forum, for the first time. I could name you several regulars here at YT, started off just that way. Seems as though they get just a bit nervous typing something for the world to see.

I suspect the guys that think exposing their e mail may cause them grief down the road, are actually getting that grief from visiting other sites. Those scammers not to interested in a bunch of tight fisted old tractor nuts. Probably the hardest group in the world to get extra money out of. That is not to say there are not those amoung us that part with cash easily. As a group I don't think we are very easy picking.
