[Chevelle-list] Road book - cool idea

[John Nasta]

One of the guys on my Yamaha 650 email list came up with a pretty cool  
idea. He calls it a "road book" and the idea is to list people who are  
willing and able to help if you get stranded in their area. You are  
supposed to keep the list in/with the vehicle. It is broken down by  
country, then state. Each listing includes the person's name, email  
address, phone numbers (preceded by C for cell, H for home, W for  
work) and then some codes about what kind of help you can offer (A =  
advice, E = electrical help, M = mechanical help, S = storage, WS =  
work space, C = camping space, T = tools available, D??? = distance in  
miles that you are willing to travel, TT = truck or trailer available,  
etc.

He keeps this password protected in pdf format on his server and he  
gives out the password by email so that you have to be a list member  
to get it. I think it's a pretty cool idea. I told him that one thing  
I'd personally like to see added is recommended repair shops. Maybe we  
could do something like that for the Chevelle list.
