OK, I'll start. We just finished a 6 mile hike to see some spectacular
pictographs along the Rio Grande and I noted that Trump's wall is not needed in
this section of the border. That is about a 100' escarpment.
On another note, I sent our info to my friend Terry Huber, newsletter editor
for OCIPMS (plastic modelers) and we may get some publicity from that next
month.
Cheers from Del Rio and Amistad NRA ----- Teddy

Subject: [ourocmr] Harry's prediction(s)
OCMR MEMBERS:
Let’s return to the beginning.
My first prediction came early Tuesday afternoon before any precincts closed.
I sent a numerical prediction for the Electoral College to 50 of my email
friends.
Instead of adding a couple dozen more OCMR individuals,
I took the easy way out – hit the Freelist button.
Received some reasonable and some passionate comments from my friends
which resulted in developing a nice matrix of red/blue over/under “bets”
that has yet to select its “attaboy” winner.
Unfortunately, the OCMR response took a different tact.
It was though I had walked across neighbor Cratchety’s lawn.
I then began compiling a different set of predictions
which I now share with the OCMR Freelist group.
Harry’s second prediction(s):
1. that some email respondents will error and broadcast to the whole string
instead of a select group
2. that new voices will join in
3. that others will over react
4. that penalties could arise
5. that more banter follows
6. that the noise level rises
7. that this becomes a small tempest in a teapot
8. that outside authority (By-laws) is called upon to quell the
disturbance
9. that in the end, the final result was as written:
"a valid topic to enhance member communication."
Yes, in the end, OCMR members began emailing each other again.
Thank you all for participating.
Now lets keep communicating, but focus on train related topics.
I promise not to toss another fox into the hen house
--at least until 2021.
For now: Whatchadoin??? Tell us about your hobby accomplishments since March.
Harry
PS: One last observation, while the fox exited the hen house with
a full belly,
this morning the farmer counted more hens than he had
before.
