Dang, Tom... I thought I was the only one you liked giving a piece of your mind 
to.  LOL

But seriously... I was with you right up until your last comment about modeling 
abilities.  To that I can only say, "BRING'EM ON!"

Further more, to show how much I agree with your comments, I was gonna add that 
maybe the boycotting of the NMRA (by not joining and getting involved in it) is 
the reason there is so little support for S in the NMRA... because if there are 
no S scalers in the NMRA to promote S, then it ain't no wonder the NMRA knows 
so little about what goes on in S.

  There is apparently a mentality that says "I will get even with those people 
many years ago who would not make the gauge they should have made, by 
boycotting NMRA gatherings.  I will deny them the honor and the pleasure of my 
presence.  That'll teach 'em."

  There's a term for that kind of thinking, but I can't remember how it's 
spelled right now.

  I suspect the real reason S gaugers don't show up is that they don't want 
their knowledge of railroading or their modelling abilities compared to others.
