So far it isn't looking very good. I guess Dick and I will just have to keep getting together at the County fair for BBQ chicken by ourselves.

Don't let getting your ideas shot down by somebody discourage you. I think smaller groupings have a better chance of coming together than the hugh HPD forum did. If I disagree with Dick we can go have a cup of coffee and sort it out and leave as friends. If I disagree with someone in Casper or Fargo or Mitchell I'm much more likely to just drop it and quit posting.

It could be that the moment has passed and we're all too independent and stubborn to try again. Or burned out. Or busy with work. Etc.......... Whatever happens is ok with me - I'm easy!
