Larry, Oben and Les - put down the keyboards and step away. Go to your rooms
and don't come out until you can play nice and get along!!!!!!!
I think I speak for most of the list when I say that we are tired of lightly
veiled jealousy tarnishing Tom's reputation and the endless on-line "sniveling"
wasting our time.
This list is for the promotion of our hobby and education of its members.
Please, Get a Life.
