Hi Pieter,

Sorry for the satire if it offended you. Most of us know about the two S Gauge 
Heralds and of course I was referring to the second one. My same post lauded 
Frank Titman and no one is more appreciative for what he did for S. I have most 
of the original Heralds and still like to read them and in so doing appreciate 
what Frank and Wally accomplished even more. 

As far as RMC is concerned: if I dealt with a bogus subscriber group, why 
didn't RMC return my calls and emails?
