What condition do you have? Glaucoma here, with a hole (flap) in the right eye. Do you have a good opthamologist?

hi Jim,
No harm, as I really thought you where asking about the rail code.
It is very difficult in running the trains, as I have spoken to Don Thompson,
as he knows my situation, as my vision past a foot is bad. So I was trying
to see if he knew how I could do his DCC unit without a cord, going cordless.
He hooked me up with someone who went into great detail on doing that. So
hopefully it will be fine once I get the cataract done too.
Its pretty bad when you are a foot from the colander and you can not read it,
just to give you a example. I can read books just fine however which I do, not
train books however, but I did just finish reading a great book on the CP and
CN. Now I am reading a book on the last Negro League World Series of 1948,
which had Willie Mays as a 17 year old, I believe.

Hi again Mike and thanks for the explanation. I wondered if a setting on
your computer had jumped, and being the joker I am, I couldn't resist a
hi-rail reference in my query. Good luck with the procedures. I'm sure it's
no fun not being able to see clearly the fruits of our handiwork. Or more
importantly, our loved ones.
Cheers
Jim

Jim,
thanks for the compliment on my layout, as it is no where as good as the many
of the layouts you all have done in scale, but it works. O! It does have a
personality of its own.
I had no idea what I was doing in the beginning, as I had a basic track plan
and it went from there, as it has a commercial side and then the industrial
side. A mix of scale buildings, Plasticville and AF accessories, which I
think add interest to a non scale or mix up layout like mine.
Please forgive me on the large font, as I am blind in my left eye, detached
retina, in 2005, the retina is back on, but it keeps falling off, so after 8
surgeries, the eye is full of silicon gel, so I have really no vision in that
eye. My good eye is blurry, has been for 2 years, as the doctor finally
figured out,, I need a cataract surgery, which was done on the other eye
before. However, the gel in my other eye has to come out, because it is
breaking up, as that will happen on the 28th. I am hoping after 4 years
now,that the retina might stay where it is supposed to be and he wont have to
put the gel back in. And yes, the puns are, this might be the same stuff used
by women for you know what and yes I am getting a oil change. O! Once that
is done, he will do the cataract surgery on the other in March, so my font can
go back to normal.
And I just had a knee replacement last November! but that is doing really
well.
Sorry for the detail long email on the eyes and thanks again for the
compliment on the layout.
It was suppose to be in CTT as Roger Carp loves the layout and my ballast
which is from Classic Trains too, as it is real crush stone and in scale. He
said that the ballast makes the layout.

Hi Mike.
I like the neat presentation of your layout and the room it's in. It all
looks very professional and well laid out.
Also, I have to ask what font size you are using on your e-mails....is it
code 225?
Cheers
Jim Martin
