Sam, Further to your point on the tree and unloched carbon cycle that is creating chaos, a recent PBS TV report showed that although the earth's temperature has only risen 1° in the last 1000? years, since 1990, CO2 gases have increased dramatically. I am puzzled that there is never, or very litt

Gotcha. Now I understand. Apparently there are several individuals that use the Chaos Theory term for their own personal quests. Confusing at the least. Anyway, thanks for the lesson, and I do agree. Later, Trent

Hi Tony, Yes this site has become very much "Ruby" oriented, but that is fine as obviuosly the interest lies in that great little loco--and it is also price conscious -very important! The site also seems to encourage more NG fans in G or 16mm scale. I wish more of the 1/32 scale buffs would part

Maybe when the prairies turn to dust again, and your grain crops fail you'd wish you'd listened to the tree huggers a little more closely. Clue: Read up on how Chaos Theory was developed by an American weatherman and you may start to get the idea Dan Pantages wrote: (just don't let the "gra
