Hey There,

Could we organize an evening session to establish contact between members ? And then why not a special day in the month, the third thirdly, to allow members to ask for help on line ?

This would also allow me to hav back the BBQ sauce receipt !

Despite what people say about it being a small world, it's actually rather large, as manovlov is discovering now. It would be soooo cool to have a get together, but this country is just a bit too large, and us volvophiles are spreed out all over it. Throw in Europe and it's hard to see how this could happen.
And speaking for myself, I can't see skype working for me.
But if you ( manovlov ) ever make it across the pond, there are many Volvo brothers and sisters who would love to meet you and who could give you a place to stay all across this country. And of course we could always trade recipes. :)
Try to learn life's bad lessons vicariously through others.

...well, I really don't know what to say after a such nice and cool post... Merci infiniment Sweedy (thanks so much Sweedy) ! I don't know who is concerned by yours words speaking about welcoming me, but let me tell that I do thank them, whoever they are...

The idea of a visio with skype or something else reduces distances. It's a bit of a rough idea, maybe it's something to dig into. Numeric world is a cool tool, but to talk while you see the other is more funny.

An example , Oh yes, easy :
- Matthew1 on board :
-"lesson 1 : Gentlemen, the subject of today : do we really need brakes on a 8 fifty ? 2 pages minimum, you have 2 hours !". That would be huge ! :D

For recipes, I'm okay. I remember a recent post where a buddy was spoken about Chili and BBQ sauces. I can't sleep at night anymore : I need to taste !
