Guest Posted February 11, 2001 Share Posted February 11, 2001 I stii have not received the Jan/Feb issue of the aaca magazine. Has anyone else received it? thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 11, 2001 Share Posted February 11, 2001 Have not received a copy in Reading, PA, and do not expect to until the 3rd week of February. It normally arrives the 3rd week of the second month covered.<P>A few people on earlier posts, said it went out around the 3rd week of January. I think they were off by a month.<P>Regards,<P>Peter J.

Guest Posted February 12, 2001 Share Posted February 12, 2001 Still nothing in Wyoming as of 2/11. But then the pony express rider only stops here once a week. ~ hvs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novaman Posted February 12, 2001 Share Posted February 12, 2001 It seems our post office must be holding ours hostage here in NC. Nothing yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynaflash8 Posted February 12, 2001 Share Posted February 12, 2001 Regular copy still not received here in the Northern Neck of Virginia. I'm afraid to say why that is so important to us here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 12, 2001 Share Posted February 12, 2001 Ronbarn, one of the National Directors, said on Feb 5th he had received his advance copy that day. I think the NDs get theirs a week to 10 days before the general membership. It is my understanding they are supposed to reach members the last week of the first month (i.e. last week of Jan for the Jan/Feb issue) but unfortunately, it doesn't always work that way. <BR>We here in south Alabama are still hopeful that whom ever is hold ours hostage will relent and we will get them by the end of the second month, read February.<BR> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 12, 2001 Share Posted February 12, 2001 Earl ~ I'll bet it's because you want the good folks out here in AACA land to get the tour request form for your Divisional Tour coming up in May. ~ hvs<P>It looks like you are the recipient of my 500th post. That only means I talk too much.<P>Howard<p>[This message has been edited by hvs (edited 02-12-2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynaflash8 Posted February 12, 2001 Share Posted February 12, 2001 Awe Howard,we think of you every time we look out the picture window in the master bathroom! Only problem is, now we have some neighbors who wander in the woods sometimes. By the way, I mentioned Maryland Glass & Mirror in my Buick Seminar presentation. If you recall, we established 1939 as the first use of tempered glass in the automobile (in the rear window of closed cars). The 1939 GM cars.<BR>PS I heard what you said about deleting one edit with another at Peter's Seminar, but I didn't want to look to smart!! <BR>[This message has been edited by Dynaflash8 (edited 02-12-2001).]<p>[This message has been edited by Dynaflash8 (edited 02-12-2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 12, 2001 Share Posted February 12, 2001 Earl ~ I believe that 1939 was the first use of tempered glass in an AMERICAN automobile. <P>I think it was used in Europe, Germany in particular, before that time. Have no documentation on that, just a feeling.<P>Thomas Borchers, if you read this can you add anything about the first use of tempered glass in motor vehicles in Germany?<P>Earl, close the curtains!! ~ Howard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 13, 2001 Share Posted February 13, 2001 The pony express rider just passed our place, but no magazine. We did get the judges newsletter though. ~ hvs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynaflash8 Posted February 13, 2001 Share Posted February 13, 2001 The team of oxen not only didn't bring the magazine to Montross today, they didn't bring any mail at all. However, it is my understanding that a Valentines Day love letter from George Washington to Martha, postmarked in 1779 at Mt. Vernon, was delivered to their home here in Montross, which is known today as Washington's Birthplace. The only advantage of our isolation is I was able to mail a letter with an 8 cent stamp the other day....well, several 8 cent stamps ( actually true, I inherited them from my parents) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronbarn Posted February 14, 2001 Share Posted February 14, 2001 Oldscarnut, on the back cover of my advance issue your Oldsmoboble looks great. On closer look there seems to be a mail pouch in the back seat. Do you think that the delay is that they are expecting your Olds to make the delivery?<P>No current issue in North Alabama. And I guess I'm off the advanced copy list now. Doggone it - term limits .

Steve Moskowitz Posted February 14, 2001 Share Posted February 14, 2001 since my magazine probably will not arrive for another year can someone tell me how my 1908 olds looks on the back cover? finally get one of my cars one the cover and the magazine is somewhere in parts unknown!

Guest Posted February 16, 2001 Share Posted February 16, 2001 Still not in Reading, PA...one hour drive from Hershey. On the other hand, around here, if you mail something to an address across town, the Postal Service routes a 2 mile distance to Philadelphia (52 miles away) and it comes back to Reading.<P>With another rate increase looming for 2002, one wonders, wonders, wonders...

Guest Posted February 16, 2001 Share Posted February 16, 2001 The pony express rider passed through Cheyenne this morning and left us a package.<P>Now we hope that this same delayed delivery doesn't happen with the issue containing the request form for "BUZZY TOUR II.

Guest Posted February 18, 2001 Share Posted February 18, 2001 OK ~ Now we know what's happening with the AA magazine. In the current issue on Page 20 is the article describing the First AACA Museum Tour. In a picture at the bottom of the right hand column is a group of AACAers at "Gancom, the facility where the mailing of the AA is done" so any/all of you on that<BR>tour better come clean and tell us what you did to the machinery/employees/whatever to cause such a retaliation.<BR>Don't anyone get beside themselves..just joking. Better to laugh about it than cry.<P>Patt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 18, 2001 Share Posted February 18, 2001 No mag in Reading, Pa as of 2/17. The Postal Service has Monday off due to President's Day. They need the rest from rushing. Let's give them a break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novaman Posted February 19, 2001 Share Posted February 19, 2001 No AA Mag. yet in Mebane, NC. <P>And what do you mean rushing?? Heck some of our postal employees don't even go into work 'til 2pm somedays to go out on their delivery route. Also when you call the Post Office after 5:30pm becuase you nor any of the other houses in your area got mail, you get told all the route drivers have delivered their mail and have gone home so you apparently didn't have any. Then ten minutes later the mailman arrives with mail. <BR> <P><p>[This message has been edited by novaman (edited 02-18-2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
