Evan, I think I'll end this here. My mission here is to try to organize Cobra owners together to help set universal safety standards and try to help make sure insurance is available for our cars. Obviously, we see things very differently. I had no intention of putting words in your mouth, I extrapolated a conclusion from what you said in your post. Sorry if it was shoving words in your mouth. It's similar to your shoving words in my mouth about soft tissue. I never said any of those things you went off about. I could write a really long response, because I think you're dead wrong, on just about everything you posted. You have your perspective, I have mine. But that is not what the issue is here. Again, if you don't want to be a part of this, please don't. There are lots of other things I'm sure you can concern yourself with. But please don't try to bring this down because you don't like insurance companies. Hey, one last thing... if we're so damn wealty, then how come I can't even afford to upgrade my Cobra?
Turk, I realize that this is a hotbed issue, and it could be argued for all eternity. And that's why I put that huge disclamer in bold at the start of this. Let's try, for once, to leave our personal issues behind. As Cobra owners, we all face the same situation. I want to help if I can. You know I meant no harm about Gasholes and Club Cranky. Hell, I'm a proud member of Club Cranky, and they scare me, so I certainly don't want the Gasholes after me!
I actually can't wait until DVSFIII to meet everyone. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I respect that. But I really want to try to stay focused here. Getting sidetracked will only ruin what we are trying to do.
Blackjack, thanks for the support. As you said, I'm trying to focus on the issue here, not get into personal story debates. I admittedly know very little about medical insurance, as I don't deal with it. I understand it is very different than auto insurance.
Everyone, let's please try to focus on the goals DV and I have set forth. I'm not saying you aren't entitled to an opinion, as everyone is and I respect that. But I request that you respect what we are trying to do. If you don't want to be part of it, that's fine. But please save your insurance attacking, lawyer attacking, or other side debates for another thread. Maybe we should create a whole other forum for that.
Would make for some fun reading. Evan, I'll bring my brass knuckles with me.
Steve
