As far as ATIS works I think one of the reasons for low posts is actually
the success of
folks passing on their knowledge. Many folks here bought tractors or
equipment that was
broken down, wore out and ready for scrapping and took 40 years to get to
that point. They
then asked and were given the knowledge of how to fix/rebuild items. Now
they know how to
adjust a carb, timing, replace parts or similar. Once you learn this stuff
it applies to a
lot of other brands and equipment and you don't really ask again. Plus the
current climate
seems to be scrap the old and buy new. Many younger folks just don't care
about "that old
green tractor/thing" unless it's worth money.

Steve, I think you are exactly right here. ATIS is to a large degree a
victim of it's success.
Also it seems there is a somewhat reduced interest in the older tractors
these days.
