My main hobby is model trains and I got together with a local club at a show a couple months ago. A friend had been bugging me to go for a long time. I met people who's handles I'd known for years and no one looked anything like I thought. Not even the Ernie. Every group has one. I for one am glad we do because they tend to be very knowledgeable people who want to contribute. In our train forum it's I'd sooner do away with the guys that just shit on everyone. I'm still at the point where I'm mostly taking from this group as there are so many who are so much more advanced than me, including Ernie. I'm hoping at some point I get to where I can give back more when the new crop comes in.

Anyway yeah it would funny to see how many people on this forum we've encountered. I know there's one or two near me.
