Roger, In reply to your suggesting I post some photos of layout work, I am not able to include photos in my postings any further (for quite a while , now.) A small Yellow Triangle shows-up when I attempt to "attach" a photo, which means I have done so to no avail. It will attach nothing.

Change a few things around. Not rebuilding. Just a little re-placement.

Why? What makes you say so, Roger?

I do realize that you started the topic.


:D Dear Roger,

You should not blame poor Murph for this topic. :(

The real culprit is HONDO74, the vinylengine guy.

Is our Universe really the only one? A new theory that hopes to solve one of the biggest problems in physics, may have rewritten our perception of time, and found a way through the Big Bang.

And there is another example of the educational aspect of MTJ - learning new things every day, :mrgreen:
Evil cannot create anything new, it can only corrupt and ruin what good forces have created or made.

Frankly, I rejoice at the freedom we have been allowed and appear to embrace among choices of topics on MTJ. It's refreshing.

Regarding train layouts and such modeling, I have just today received another invitation from good ol' Wayne to send him photos I'd like to have included in some postings here, on MTJ, for him to include among my replies, so I am going to avail myself of that generosity, from time to time.

Also regarding layout efforts, that interest has largely left me, since my loss of my wife. I am not sure how that may develop or "progress." In fact, just last month, I declined an invitation from a former client to travel to his home in Long Island to do new layout craftwork for him. I have connected him up with a valuable resource of mine, and they have hit it off nicely, so my client can have progress and not have to wait for me to experience a day that may never arrive.

Presently, I have not touched my layout, only walking by it on the way from the cellar stairs to the garage door. There is nothing to report.

I lost my best train buddy 4 years ago. I haven't had the interest in the trains either. She was a big inspiration and driver for me. I was in the process of working on a layout and a garden layout that she wanted. I don't intend to do any of that now as I see it as a lost cause. I have been in the process of selling or trading off a lot of what I have accumulated over the years.

Since I appear to be the culprit around here. I will back off so everyone can talk about trains. I will sit in the bleachers so everyone can play. :) :) :)

"Is our Universe really the only one? A new theory that hopes to solve one of the biggest problems in physics, may have rewritten our perception of time, and found a way through the Big Bang."
It has been theorized that there could be many "Parallel" universes. This could explain what causes our feelings of "Deja Vu". And, why we see faces that we have never seen before when we dream.
Then, how many of you have ever wondered "Am I the only one here that is real and everyone else is a robot"? Well Rod, have you??? :wink:

Hondo,
No! No! No! I was/am the only complainer. Don't change what you are doing. I'm just trying to push some others to post modeling stuff.
Remember MTJ is the model railroading place for non modeling subjects. You can't hardly find that on most forums.

Murph,
I understand but I hate to see your talent not be available to others.

Well I started to write about an author from the first half of the 20th century and forgot his name but now remember so I will go on.
Charles Fort wrote several books about odd events that happen(ed) on Earth. Also wrote about a twin of Earth 180 degrees around the Sun
from Earth that we can't see. Of course this was before any kind of human (?) space travel. I read some of his stuff in the 1940s and
thought it was a lot of fun. He also covered Atlantis, Mu and other lost ciivilizations. Most are still available.

I apologize Hondo74. I just didn't want the credit for this interesting topic to go to someone else.
