[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by DavidJ611 Coyote, I really enjoyed reading your musings. Ditto all the positive comments already expressed. I think (IMHO) that your thoughtful and well composed editorial above is worthy of the glossy-print pages of our forum's gracious host. [8D][tup] ...MR editorial staff, are you 'listening'[?] -Dave [/quote] Coyote: So glad I found this thread. This has been a great read. I second, whole heartedly, Daves suggestion of having this published in the MR. I agree with others that something of these thoughts have occured to me in days past when, one particularly good friend, found it "fun" to denegrate my hobbie to 'playing with childrens toys'. When I went into detail as to all of the different talents that are included in this hobby, he admitted that none of this thinking had ever entered his head. My friend will never pick up a copy of MR, but there will be many first timers/newbies who, having read your article, will find it a hobbie that can be filled with many challenges. Admittedly, I fall short of excellence in many of the 'art' forms that collectively make up our hobbie, but that is where the formation of a 'club' can be very helpful and fulfilling. Trying to identify the 'feelings' that your article has generated, for me, I wonder what kind of a thread could be generated on the thought of expressing how each of us was drawn into the hobbie. Thanks again, Coyote.
