I agree too.   Unfortunately, our missions live on Email. Slack is used to get instant response, but in general,
email is it.  Blogs take too long. Email is quick and simple.  IMHO

    I actually feel the same way.  Call me a dinosaur, but if it doesn't show up in my email inbox, chances are I won't get to it.

    There are advantages to subdividing topics as many forums do, but the disadvantage is if I don't happen to go to the right area I might miss out on something I didn't know I'd find interesting!

    Sincerely,

    Chris

    Who has the time to monitor all the forums out there?

    Email takes a fraction of a second to skip through if you’re not interested in the content and modern email clients can throw away an entire thread in a second.

    While I have registered for an unknown number of DeTomaso related forums, I never check them out, unless someone sends me a mail with a link 😜

    I do follow many of the DeTomaso FB groups, which is about as intrusive as email.
