So you're telling me that HPP, Smoke Signals and The Legend all have the same content- and you haven't been a member of POCI since 2008. Really? As far as the "Don Keefe Show" reference, I was trying to differentiate the notion that there is a difference in content and that I write different material, in different places to cater to different audiences.
There is a bigger picture here and that is the Pontiac hobby as a whole. Chris Phillip, Rocky Rotella, Tom DeMauro, Tom Symczyk and myself are the guys in the print media world who even care about Pontiac. Trust me, there aren't a cadre of people trying to break into this end of the automotive world- it is a challenge to get members to send photos of their cars to any of the magazines.
As far as oversaturation of contributors, unfortunately, the line is pretty short and it isn't getting longer. We are doing our level best to keep going. I am really sorry it isn't enough for you.
If you think that the state of the Pontiac hobby and POCI is the same and nothing has changed, there really isn't anything I can say that will change your mind because it is closed to the reality of what the POCI is now. Fall in line and STFU? That's what you think is going on?
I know it's easy to sit around and pass judgement all day long but I have to get back to work and ship a Pontiac magazine to the printer.
