Although I have time to scan the S-Scale and S-Trains list, I rarely can
follow the links. As a busy father I am forced do most reading on the
bus. Computer access at home is greatly limited. If you move the
Modeling Guide to the web then I have nothing. If someone wants to
offer to print the web version for a nominal fee and mail it to me, that
would be fine.
Think twice, jump once.

Subject: {S-Scale List} The 1:64 Modeling Guide future
What do do for 1:64 Modeling Guide?
It is now hard to find the HO Train Mag. in stores and there are no
Hobby Shops to car train Mag.
I say can we find a way to keep it going on the web? All the printing
and mailing costs would be eliminated. So how can Debbie and Ben be
reward financially?
I believe we should leave the decision up to the large advertisers.
I will support Debbie and Ben if they want to keep it going.
The Web is replacing all magazines, so how can we fight the trend. Yes
we have been fighting it all our lives.
I remember going on to train rings. Can we do that?
If you take all the S web sites you have a lot of articles that
readers never see.
My idea is link every S 1/64 web site to all others. We can create a
web page to be used by all 1/64 people. You don't have to build one,
just use one given to everyone, or have every web site link to our best
web site who has a master set of links. How about the NASG web site.
I am never going to stop promoting my idea. Bring in the car, truck,
fire engine collectors to our web sites. Sell them tables at all are
functions. We have a better network then they have. There are a number
of new magazines. We need to send them info on our events. Do we not
sell cars, trucks, constructions vehicles already?
I believe we can increase our participation at our events by 25%. I
know we can sell them something. They need figures and buildings. They
do not know we exist.
I will offer to build a data base if everyone would foreword web sites
that we can join and get linked too.
If they do not want all of us, then we want them to at least link to
the NASG web site.
That's my story and I am sticking to it.
