Please Help Me

I really believe that we users of older Macs need
a good active club to get new ideas about how to
make these old Macs work better or just talk about our
old Macs. So please all you SE, SE30, MacII, Mac
Classic, Performa, Quadra, and Centris owners help me get
this club moving. I have sent a lot of emails and
posted on BBs. Anything you can do to help will be
greatly appreciated. Join, Join, Join, Post, Post, Post.
Thanks, George.....
