A weekend off and I have my 15 min of fame right here!

Thanx guys - you made my day.

As I have told Ed - I am no more complicated that I like what I see and want to know more about it. I print off some of the techno answers and take them home and read them in the evenings. This train business sounds incredibly hard and physical, while at the same time being incredibly interesting and even a little romantic.

I take pictures just to pass on to people who want to see what we have here in the Lincoln yards. I don't keep them - I don't want toys or pictures - I want the real thing.

It is as simple as that. I appreciate your being so patient with me and answering what must seem like some really silly questions to you. But I do want to know, or I wouldn't waste both our times asking. And sometimes I don't remember everything, so I re-ask those questions again. Age will do that to you!

But above all, I really enjoy the the humor that goes through these threads. Long may it continue.

Mook - (Jen)
