Very nicely written, I'd say. Good photo too. Was moved to typing when I saw
the unfortunate hyphenation of 'figurine'. In the mid 80s I used to
contribute to the UK's then-biggest 'military modelling' magazine. I think
the typesetters and proof readers actively tried to use that same
hypenation. You *never* saw 'figur-ine'! My favourite was along the lines of
"...notice the exquisitely painted figurine rolling in the gutter" in an
article on some Hogarthian diorama...
What's wrong with 'metre' by the way? Do you want feet/yards or 'meter'?

She made it sound like Dean and I were building the whole thing ourselves... sigh. (...) (23 years ago, 1-Aug-01, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)
