Hi Jason:

___As far as promoting, you are watching the total members, right? Just 12 more to go before you hit the magic 1K! Take a look at the new threads and those being replied to. It was not long ago where 3 - 5 threads a day were being created or replied too. Lately, I am seeing upwards of 20 with a 15 - 20 hour hiatus.

___The next item we will begin to see is rising AH and Escape HEV mileage stats as it warms up as well as new members with them over the next few weeks. It is hard to get excited about a performance sedan or small SUV achieving 25 - 30 mpg but when these two begin hitting in the low 40’s, the Prius II and HCH’ers begin hitting the high 50’s - mid 60’s, and the Insight’ers come out of the woodwork with their 100 + mpg tanks, your site is going to wake up like a bunch of youngsters on Christmas morning!

___I hope you are excited because I am

___Another item … Take a gander at the Driveaccord.net forums. In particular, take note of the different Accord jpg’s that appear in the upper right corner at each page load. It would be great to see Greenhybrid do the same with various hybrid models and/or angles of them given you are both using the very latest forum SW. It appears to be a simple SW switch and a source for the jpg’s is all.

___Finally, is there anyway to view just those automobiles that have had their tanks uploaded in the last 24 hours? I am on dial up and it is a SOB to wait for the entire list to load when I do my bi-daily check of the RHMDB. I have asked about this feature in the past and maybe you have forgotten?

___Good Luck as your site will be something really special in just another few months as it hits critical mass.
