I've been wrapped up in cleaning out my excess projects (just got rid of a '66 Travelall and '89 Comanche) and forgot this place was around.
AMC/Jeep gauges are for amusement only. Any correlation between them and reality is purely coincidental!

Is there a place to check for updates or tells the story about what is going on?

I'm a little confused as to what this place is.

Long story short, I hope.  A while back Steve asked Ken to help out financially.  Ken took over ownership of the site to help out.  Steve still had issues with keeping things going and continuing to have a heavy hand in running things.  Ken said, enough is enough, and moved everything over, with my blessing as I really owned the original site, to this site.

Alright, I think I got it.

Basically if the Nest comes back up, it wont really be the Nest, so I should stick with this place and the Evo place.

sadly the nest is never going to be the nest again as long as their is a person pulling the strings that thinks of it as a way to make money rather than a group of people to help each other out and enjoy a common hobby

I wonder if one of the admins can send a mass email to all members letting them know about the change and inviting them to return to the Den. I thought most forums had an option for the admins to send out messages to the emails people used to sign up in cause of maintenance and other things like that.

That is an option here, which I think should be left to ie, or vangremlin to send out.

Yes, we do have that option.  It works once in awhile but not often.

I think he means by how the den just appeared out of no where. I don't know if he saw the forum while it was the nest, but I think it would be safe to say that it was on the road to self distruction, hence why a member had this site created
