Post by: John Betsch - "SADIE" on February 19, 2021, 00:01:25: Reading the many postings and the quick responses of information and assistance that occur, we can appreciate the type of members that are part of the SL Group.

However, we also need to appreciate the dedication of our volunteer staff. I am sure there are many members who have volunteered for various efforts who know that many times, members just "assume."

Here's my big THANK YOU to our volunteers like Jonny B

Post by: RAY on February 19, 2021, 08:35:27: My thanks to you Jon for all your selfless time and efforts that you put in to always producing our fantastic Pagoda World.

I am sure no. 28 will be every bit as interesting as all the other copy's in my collection.

Post by: Cees Klumper on February 19, 2021, 21:34:51: I don't know, I always found Jon a little bit lazy, haha ;D

Seriously, he's kept Pagoda Notes going (for is it decades now?) and Pagoda World, and it takes a certain character to stick to making it happen for any amount of time. So thanks a million also from me, Jon!

Post by: JamesL on February 24, 2021, 18:17:36: Mine arrived today

Thank you
Title: Re: Pagoda World 28
Post by: AndrewB on February 24, 2021, 18:25:12: Mine arrived yesterday - truly impressive compared to some other clubs, where a US posted item arrives a month later in the UK than with US members.

I always enjoy reading it, and am grateful for all the efforts of Jon B and the contributors in providing such an interesting read.

This is one of the best clubs I have ever seen in operation - excellent technical resources and forum, active members asking questions, giving answers and providing interesting information that might benefit others, all within a polite engagement. I count myself extremely lucky to have joined it, and encourage all other Pagoda drivers I meet in the UK to do likewise.

Thanks once again.

Maybe tomorrow!

Post by: Jordan on February 26, 2021, 17:00:50: Excellent job Jon. Looks like some really interesting articles and great photo's. Now I just need a lousy weather day so I can justify sitting down with a glass of wine and reading the whole issue.

Post by: Mike Hughes on March 02, 2021, 13:55:41: "The U.S. Mail is somewhat inconsistent these days," he said, tongue in cheek. "A friend in Mc Lean, Virginia, barely 20 miles away from our home in Alexandria, Virginia, sent me a Christmas card, postmarked December 18, 2020, which I received on February 19, 2021. The envelope also bore a hand stamped February 9, 2021 postmark from Charleston, South Carolina!"

Post by: Charles 230SL on March 02, 2021, 18:00:19: beautiful! ,, thanks to Jon and all for another great issue
Title: Re: Pagoda World 28
Post by: FastWgn on March 03, 2021, 20:39:00: Echo the prior comments around Jon's work - excellent.

All articles were great, except the goofy story about the "summer of the Pagoda".....

;D

And as someone pointed out for me - Ed is at European Auto Solutions, not what's in the article.

And I have to add - D.Kelly's picture on the inside back cover is absolutely stunning!

Thanks to Jonny for another great issue (looking forward to reading) with spectacular photos - as usual!

One comment: it might be just me, but because of the pandemic isolation and our geographical distances, I enjoy seeing pictures of the faces behind the names that we share online in this forum. It makes it a little more personal for me

Post by: doitwright on March 05, 2021, 23:34:27: Jon and PW Contributors. Awesome edition. The best I have seen during my membership. Great articles and photos. Those without full membership should know they are missing out. I plan to have an article for you to consider once I test my integrated AC system.
