Just thinking out loud here Bobby, but what if you promoted your website to the aged of our community? We build history here, maybe there's a way to get some more people involved with the site, even at a spectator level. Let's face it, the old bug gars haven't got much else to do.

Just back at 57--last year--and I wonder how long I can actively build. The neuropathy is getting worse in my hands. I wear gloves a lot to improve my sense of touch when modeling. The modeling club I belong to has a LOT of older gentlemen who are military veterans. they add a real richness to talks since they lived a lot of history we research on here.

That's what I'm getting at Ted. There might still be some fellas floating around from WWII sitting around playing tiddlywinks all day, would love to jump in and share some war stories on our build threads, it'd be fantastic I think.
