"If we all are resigned to the scale market not growing, and if we talk 
negatively, and especially if we write negative emails like this to a large 
audience, possibly including Lionel managers, we may succeed  in keeping it 
about 1 in 10."

Well, I dunno, seems like a stretch to me, Earl. Facts is facts. We are a tiny 
market. I suspect that Lionel executives took a look at the numbers and decided 
they were not missing a lucrative market here. But I never said don't try to 
convince them. Ed makes a good case for trying.

As for the S scale market growing, yes, I'm resigned to the fact that it is not 
going to grow any larger than it already is. That doesn't mean I don't support 
efforts to promote it, buy all I can from S vendors, try to convince my 
benighted HO friends of its benefits, etc., but it does mean I am willing to 
face the fact that there are very few S scalers under 50.
