Howdy folks ...I have been struggling with post requests that contain political overtones and undertones....The current political climate for EVs and Climate Change really sucks and can't stand that it's happening. We all want a better place for our kids and grandkids to grow up and have a wonderful life. We are all trying to traverse this current craziness. We are getting bombarded with $$$ requests to support political campaigns or organizations fighting against these issues and most are strapped for cash. As a club member what do you think or feel we can do together to combat this freight train going in the wrong direction.

Any and all comments or suggestions would be emensely appreciated.

Sincerely, P Dennis Hancock. Club President
