Hey Doug, Welcome back! As others have noted, there has been a proliferation of groups out there. With each new group there has been a renewed discussion of whether or not this is a good thing. As an admin and major poster at Classic-Castle, I'm (...) (17 years ago, 24-Jul-07, to lugnet.space, FTX)
