I had hoped that the disclaimer: "Speaking strictly from a Neanderthal point of view" might have averted the "knee reaction" rehtoric resulting from touching upon a "raw nerve." As far as Muddy Creek's reference to "the same old thread" goes, perhaps "the same old" saying: "opinions are like navels; everyone has one" applies. Additionally, [for the life of me] I don't recall one thing mentioned about an "authority to pronounce who is or who isn't a model railroader." In regard to a depletion in the <br />"ranks of the hobby," this will occur by attrition in any case. How many folks still gaze at their first toy train set circling endlessly on a "roundy-round?" By the way, is the "market place" a first priority among scale model railroaders? <br /> <br />Regarding Highiron2003ar's comment on straying from the original Topic: "RTR OR KIT ," I may only refer back to the title of the Topic. As to enjoying "...each other's contributions regardless of the labor that went into any item;" who's "labor" and what "contributions?" It occurs to me that CNJ831 "hit the Bull's Eye" with his mention of "instant gratification." I humbly submit another time honored saying: "Beauty (Art) is in the eye of the beholder." Happy railroading to all, no matter what your preference may be.
