     Yes, More scale modelers read the big two magazines and it would
be most productive to let those readers see that S is a true scale
modeling option. S scalers should be encouraged to submit articles
that show the same type and quality of modeling that they show in HO
and N scales. It's no harder to do it in S scale than it is in the
others and I think a good dose of S modeling exposure might create
some interest among the large flock of HO and N scale readers. Why
don't the leading S manufacturers promote or support  these type of
articles? They would seem to have the most to gain from seeing their
products in the best light. 
   Another option might be to lobby the major magazines to have a
column dedicated to each of the popular scales? Some kind of on-going
S content every month might get the ball rolling? My take on the
Sgaugian and the Nasg publication is they are preaching to the choir
when it would do more good to spread the word to a wider audience? 
I modeled in HO and then O for many years before I stumbled upon an
SHS PS2 hopper and then it still took quite a while longer to realize
there was enough addition S stuff to build a layout so I'm sure there
are many others in the same situation....dave
