Lolo always strikes me as either LE or a writer looking for material for an article or book--he rarely posts and when he does it's usually very vague or overly broad in scope--he can't possibly think that someone will actually answer his questions in any meaningful way;

He always wants to "get the pulse" of what's happening "in the hobbyist community"--why ask?  Just sit back and read--the board itself answers all of your questions Lolo....it's like you're looking for a summary of the previous month's hobbyist weather report or something--do really think that IF you actually got an answer to some of your queries that it would useful in some meaningful way?

Go back and reread your posts--it's always comes across as "so, what's new?  What's going on, any news?"  Uh, yeah, just go back and read the posts since your last visit....
