Subject: Re: [ASC McLaren ] Photo section dilema
Body:
If that time comes maybe the registry members could kick in a few
bucks to create our own website adds free. Or maybe we can see if
Yahoo will alow us to expand here few a few dollars. There are
plenty of minds in here to figure it all out.

group to front some pledges to help pay for the photo archives when
that time comes. Always best to be ready for any eventuality ;)
