A message to all those who've been following my fotopic postings
As I've now got more that 150 photos on the South Shore part of my
fotopic site and over 120 on the 'real' trains part of the site I
realise that it is getting a bit more difficult for people to find
specific items of interest to them.
Therefore I will shortly be adding new collections and moving some of
the existing photos over to these new collections as and when I find out
exactly how to do it (I think I've got it sorted but I have to be
certain that I've got it right before I go too far).
Two examples of the kind of collections I hope to create are photos I've
taken of Charlie Fox-Wilson's Broke Brick Mountain and Cliff South's
Ashley Danville and Deanstown layouts. It should also make it easier if
anyone wants to link to a specific 'theme'.
This should take place by Tuesday or Wednesday next week but in the
meantime this is your chance to view the whole of the gallery at

Oh no, of course not.
Enough. In the trollbox with you.

He's not selling anything, so he's not "spamming": just offering to
share his pictures with any other model railroaders who might be
interested. If you're *not* interested, just don't go look at the
pictures. Simple, no?
BTW: your sig line as well as your post lead me to believe you may
have fallen on your head without a helmet once too often.

Not at all simple - these messages are being cross-posted to other groups
including uk.rec.models.rail - this group has a very specific charter
limiting posting to topics directly relating to the modelling of UK
prototypes. In that context (and that group is where I for one have read
these postings), such off-topic messages are very definitely spam.

Nope, it still ain't "spam", but maybe if you lie down and cry
yourself to sleep tonight things will look better in the morning.
Get a grip.

---------------------------------------------
This is correct, "North America". Canadians don't object to "North
America".
"America" has been stolen by the U.S.A. as the name of their country, which
is why Canada is not part of "America". The continent name is "North
America" not "America". Why? See preceeding sentence.
However, why is it that when Canadians object to being called "Americans"
people like yourself say we are wrong yet if some other country changes
their name and decides to be called something else, "Mirimar" rather than
"Burma" for example, or a city says you must now call us "Bejing" instead of
"Peking" you go along with it? If Canadians insist that they are not
"Americans", then you should respect that and not put Canadians down for not
wanting to be "Americans".
