    Done.

    Thanks. I have one or two of those.

    Can updates still be provided here for those of us who don't Facebook?

    I just found a box of about 50-70 Model Cellar paint bottles that are at least 20 years old. Is it worth the effort to reclaim them and what would that involve? As an aside, if I ever get to the painting steps they will be done by hand. Lungs and location won't allow my air brushes to be used.

    Thank you for that. Some excellent modelling there.

    Damn. I mistook the picture of him with his arms above his head as current. He has a lot of work in his future and I hope he is aware of his support here. And likely, in a lot of other paces.

    Wow, I had no idea of the relative size of some of these.

    Harvey, you don’t know me from Adam’s off ox but I am pulling for you. Hard.

    I would apologize but I have been in the US longer than I was in Canada. I find it a bit odd that people blame bad forest management for the problem. I don’t think they realize that Canada is a vast area with most of the population near the US boarder.. There is no way the forests can be groomed to remove prior debris. Except, possibly, by fire. It is good to see the international volunteers arriving to help out.

    Well said.  It mirrors my thinking but with facts. What do you read to learn this stuff?

      Thanks. I just scan the net, but I apply Socrates' concept of critical thinking and querying (see ? politics again ;) ).

      I avoid the sites which are obviously linked to the conflicting parties, like all the .ua or .ru ones. I also read other posts on the same source, about other subjects, to get a 'feel" for the spirit of the site and their "standard" bias.

      Then it's about recouping information.

      As for reading, it's always been my favorite pastime, but it impinges on my modelling time :)

      Thanks again

      I appreciate the response.  I know how I feel but have come to distrust just about everything.  It started when I had a small business and worked in my basement.  I would watch something on CSPAN which shows various House/Senate hearings without comment.  Later, Fox TV would report on it and it made me wonder if it was the same event.  I stopped watching Fox for anything other than sports. I fear the other networks have moved to their own biases.

    Too bad it has to be in London. Could have been in Ottawa. We will be watching. I am pro pomp, especially British pomp.

    I vaguely remember that name but have no firmer recollection. I used to fish the Bow at Fish Creek Park, the Raven north of Calgary, Fallen Timber northish west and even drove through the Highwood to fish Lake McPhail.
