- ACtually, it was originally proposed (back in '89 or so) as rec.models.misc.
- Without degenerating into a flame war, can we discuss this point? This is one
- of the things I want to iron out during the discussion period, before the
- voting takes place...
-
- Me, I'll just be happy when we have our rec group, whether it's .scale or
- .misc. I'll still post kit reviews, I'll still try to answer new modelers'
- questions as well as I can... I just want us to go beyond the alt realm...
-
- Other views on this question?
