<P>[quote]<FONT color=#0000ff>As much as I hate to admit it, but I owe 18% of my train knowledge to futuremodal. Not that he personally educates me, but some of the stuff he says prompts others to give very learned responses back. In many ways, I think futuremodal is the most valuable contributor. And, I think his missives should be encouraged</FONT><FONT color=#000000>.[/quote]</FONT></P> <P><FONT color=#000000>Gee, thanks for the compliment........I.....guess......[%-)]</FONT></P> <P>Of course, you <EM>do</EM> get it apparently. There is a method to my madness, in that such can elicit responses that otherwise would go unposted. But yes, the forum has lost it's edge in terms of liveliness. I blame it on the transition from the old red-orange background to this new calming earth tone background.</P> <P>As for the "thread for everyone" outbreak, I pin the source blame squarely on Murphy, who started a "everyone" Milwaukee thread in response to the rancor on the usual Milwaukee threads, and pretty soon every third topic was an "everyone" thread. But I'm sure he did not envision it getting so out of hand.[oops]</P> <P>BTW - It's never too early to start the young 'uns on cultivation of railroad minutia. Surely you can type and babysit at the same time?</P>
