 I was wondering who Frank Elliott was myself!

 This is an odd comparison.  I see them as different styles of modelers.  I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish here.

Actually, it was intended to be a joke w/ a  Christmas card inside. I really expected people to exchanging pleasantries once the post was opened.

How dare you come on here with humour, pleasantries and good cheer, are you trying to create harmony and happiness within the model railroading fraternity?

Shame on you - and a Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year!

Since 95% of the main track on my prototype was curved, I'll have to go with Salma Hayek.  Adherance to prototype and all that, ya know.

 Kind of an unfair comparison since these two do not compete in the same arena. Malcolm is all about the imagery, Ellison was all about operation.

 So to avoid controversy, I too will go with Salma Hayek. Hey, the entire world is not just trains...
