Good morning everyone!  (Workin' nights this week... it sucks.)   Figured 
I'd lump all of my replies into one email.  Thus, you only have to wipe your 
boots off once when my BS'n is over.

(Time out: Wife's home for lunch. My only time to see her for the next 24 
hours.)

Okay... back to some really serious business: My replies.

PUTTY HINT:

Earl:  Glad you found some value in it!  One thing to note: IF you have an 
unwanted hole to fill... try a dab of 5 minute from underneath, swishing the 
goop up through the hole. Less excess goop to deal with once it sets.

Yup, "Ming The Merciless" (he lived on the planet "Mong")  was supposed to 
be a diabolical character in the 1930's "Flash Gordon" episodes.  Seeing as 
the original MTM was corny, overacted, and otherwise a bit silly... thought 
that adopting the moniker would be quite appropriate given our similarities 
in name and manner!  (Actually, I think someone gave me that nickname on the 
Sn3 list years ago??)


PA REWORK:

Shabbona Bob: True, there WERE PA's to be seen in KC in my era (Mop, ATSF, 
Wabash, ??)... HOWEVER... I have designed my layout to accomodate shorter 
equipment. My visible mainline curves are 30" radius.  For sure, IF there 
were ever a passenger train on my rails, it would be ONLY for "eye candy" 
(think: through train), as it would have no purpose (no stations to serve) 
in my gritty, urban industrial setting.

Jonathan:  Thanks. I worked REALLY hard to get that PA to the state it's in. 
As you can see in that pic, my skills are so amazing. I am truly awesome.

Pieter:  Aw crap... busted.  I confess: The work ain't mine.  Bob did it. 
However, I'll take the compliments however I can get 'em.  It was fun while 
it lasted.
