I joined these lists (Ford-Ferguson, Farmall, Antique Tractor) 23 years ago when email, instant messenger, and a few forums were the only real internet communications. But today with all of the social media, you tube, and a lot more websites, message groups appear to have fallen off. I also know our local antique tractor club has had trouble getting new blood, don’t know if it is a matter of lack of interest in the tractors, or lack of interest in meeting people face to face. Our area shows are still well attended by all ages.<br></div><div data-signatureblock="true"><div><br></div><div>Aaron Dickinson</div><div>Mason, Michigan</div><div><br></div></div><div style="padding-top: 5px; border-top-color: rgb(229, 229, 229); border-top-width: 1px; border-top-style: solid;"><div><font face=" 'Calibri', 'Segoe UI', 'Meiryo', 'Microsoft YaHei UI', 'Microsoft JhengHei UI', 'Malgun Gothic', 'sans-serif'" style='line-height: 15pt; letter-spacing: 0.02em; font-family: "Calibri", "Segoe UI", "Meiryo", "Microsoft YaHei UI", "Microsoft JhengHei UI", "Malgun Gothic", "sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt;'><b>From:</b> <a href="mailto:meulenms@gmx.com" target="_parent">Mike M</a><br><b>Sent:</b> Friday, December 16, 2022 11:57 AM<br><b>To:</b> <a href="mailto:at@lists.antique-tractor.com" target="_parent">Antique Tractor Email Discussion Group</a></font></div></div><div><br></div><div dir=""><div id="readingPaneBodyContent">Thanks for the replies everyone.
