No, nothing new, but in this case no news is good news!

I usually try not to comment on issues like this for the simple fact as I have a tough time putting my thoughts into words.  Although I do not personally know John nor have I met him; I feel that I owe him a sincere Thank You for all that you have accomplished as well as generously given of that knowledge to the Camaro and Corvette junkies of the world.  You probably do not understand the magnitude of the impact you have made on many of us without ever realizing it.  But you have.  When the time comes please tell my pops hello for me and that I look forward to seeing him again later on down the road.   Take care John & God bless.

I've learned a wealth of 1st gen knowledge that's even beyond my belief from John and many more of you here.  I really like reading when John had something to say.  The sharing of his experience, knowledge and history with GM could almost at times make you feel as if you were right there at the assy-line.

Thanks John for what you so kindly shared and taught me.

My prayers and thoughts are with you, and God bless.

Posted today on Caring Bridge:   :)
Miracles Never Cease
Journal entry by John Hinckley — 19 minutes ago

Here are John's own words - I'm happy to be able to provide this update - as a result of unknown medical issues and all of your thoughts and prayers, my health has improved dramatically since entering hospice care in December, and I will return home in February.

While inexplicable in medical terms, John's strength is gradually returning and he is now able to walk with the assistance of a walker.  He has been cleared to return to his home for further recuperation.  While he remains under Hospice care, our reasons for optimism continue to grow.  Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.

This shows that internal fortitude and thousands of people's prayers DO MATTER...   :)
Now we can continue our prayers that JohnZ is back here online with us soon...
