Why has there been such apathy towards Wamalug's train shows?  In the past
month, there have been a total of nine messages from non-members about our
setups.  There has been absolutly no discussion, no critiques, and very little
praise.  Do you all just not care?  Does everyone think we aren't good enough
to even deign to speak to us?  Heck, we've even mentioned (twice) we
successfully had DCC in our setups, and there is hardly a peep.  I've seen tons
of messages asking how to do it in the past year, and when it *is* done, no one
cares.  I'm sorry, but since there seems to be no interest, I am seriously
considering discontinuing these types of posts.

Can't speak for anyone else but here's why I hardly ever comment on
them.

A)  I'm not a trainhead
B)  I normally look at all the pics, and even call my wife in to see
them, and amazed at how cool they are, but really have very little to
offer in response other than "Wow, those are great."
C)  I don't like posting nothing but "me too" posts, which is what a
lot of "wow, those are great" posts start sounding like.

I hardly ever post comments to Castle pics either.  Not enough time.
