    Stop the madness... —Steven Barile
   ... and go build trains!!!!! 1) I will invite privately each train club and LTC arm of LUGs, no one will be left out! 2) *We* will then privately decide on a name which really can be as arbitrary as QWERTY, who cares! (and not have a 'Life of Brain' (...) (23 years ago, 28-Feb-01, to lugnet.trains.org)
   
        Re: Stop the madness... Please do... —Robin Werner
     Steve, I am with you on this one! I think all of this jabbering is nuts, I didn't come home from work and log on to see all of this stuff. Lets all take two steps back and take a deep breath and not get to carried away with this at first. Lets get a (...) (23 years ago, 28-Feb-01, to lugnet.trains.org)
   
        Re: Stop the madness... —Eric Kingsley
     Steve, I agree with all of this except maybe... (...) How do you see this working? I thought that one of the main ideas behind this was so that we could talk off-line without anyone looking over our shoulder. Do you see LD being perminantly on the (...)

         Re: Stop the madness... —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) I'm not Steve. But I think the idea was that the mailing list would be private... and when LD was to be notified of something, someone would tell them but say they were speaking with the consensus of the group. If LD wanted to say something, (...) (23 years ago, 28-Feb-01, to lugnet.trains.org)
    
         Re: Stop the madness... —Eric Joslin
      (...) I think that each club should definitely handle speaking to TLC and other organisations on their own. I do not think that this meta-group should *ever* speak to TLC, or give TLC the impression that they (TLC) should address the meta-group (...) (23 years ago, 28-Feb-01, to lugnet.trains.org)
     
          Re: Stop the madness... —Eric Joslin
       (...) Buh. Brain lockup. Too many things at once. To finish my own thought (even though it's obvious): I *do* think that the meta-group should freely share and compare notes about the results of dealing with TLC and other organisations with one (...)

          Re: Stop the madness... —John Neal
       (...) What if TLC *wants* a single group to which it can more conveniently communicate, instead of dealing with 10-12+ different groups? (...) ?? What if TLC or LD wants to support LTCs doing train shows by providing catalogs, K8s, signs, whatever. (...) (23 years ago, 28-Feb-01, to lugnet.trains.org)
     
          Re: Stop the madness... —Eric Joslin
      (...) They can organise something, then. If they are in touch with 10 people from 10 different groups, they can easily send the same email to 10 people, for example. (...) Why would having this meta-group make things any easier for TLC? If TLC (...) (23 years ago, 28-Feb-01, to lugnet.trains.org)

I'm not Steve either but I did meet him (and three other members of PNLTC - Dwayne, Kim, Dave) last night here in Portland. (...) (23 years ago, 28-Feb-01, to lugnet.trains.org)
   
        Re: Stop the madness... —James Brown
   (...) <snipped bulk of info> (...) Steve - I can understand that you don't necessarily have time to follow all this stuff (I haven't had time to more than skim headers since this time yesterday), but you really should have expected what happened.
