| (...) EXCUSE ME????? What sort of revisionist history rewrite is this???? John Neal whined for months for the GMLTC to go 8-wide instead of 6-wide. And after we couldn't take his whining anymore we broke down and voted 'yes'. And NOW he wants us to (...) (24 years ago, 31-Oct-00, to lugnet.trains)
