As you can imagine, I get tons of emails, IM's, and sometimes letters and phone calls from NICO / 240sx.org members every month.

I got a letter in the mail last week that contained a sizeable donation, but it was the letter that really impressed me. I'm not a real emotional or sensitive guy, but for some reason, this letter touched me.

I'll post up the text of the handwritten letter so that the sender can remain anonymous.

Dear Greg,

Hope you enjoyed your holidays. I know it isn't much but I'd like to donate some of my Christmas money to NICO. I'd like to give more but it's kind of hard for a 17-year-old high school student to come across extra money.

If I had to pay for all the knowledge I got from NICO this would be nowhere close to it. So thanks for providing us with the BEST forum out there, for free.

Hope you have a happy New Year.

Best Regards

I have posted this letter above my computer in the office, as it reminds me that we, collectively and together, are doing awesome things for Nissan enthusiasts.

Keep up the great work, NICOnauts - Thank you for making this the best Nissan forum on the Internet.

p.s. To the author (you know who you are): Please email me your shirt size, I have something here I think you'll like. Thanks for making my week.

Wow, very nice. Can only say I hope the person who donated it is rewarded 10 fold for their generousity in all areas of life.

We truely are a community "together" and contributions of both knowledge and finances (and sometimes elbow grease) are what keep this site growing.

Thanks to all who have contributed.

I can also say, bad things happen to good people. Good things happen to bad people. Either are inevitable.

Greg do you accept the Euro currency?

Like I said before, I love you guys; in a sexual kind of way.

the knowledge we get here is priceless at the "personal vehicle owning level."

P.S. above i was kidding about the sexual kind of love.
