Maybe we have already, along with Raven, Troy, etc.Howdy Wulf, got to do lunch sometime, packrat
Three of the activities I planned to be heavily involved in when I retire (about 5 years now) have literally died out, and the last one got so expensive and heavily regulated I can't do it anymore.Dang this thread gives me mixed feelings. We need some more young blood in this hobby, its great we have such knowledgeable and experienced people. I fear with only 18% being under 50 we are going to loose so much in not a long amount of time. I worry in 10 maybe 15 years we won't have many resources left.

It feels like I’m surrounded by old wizards it’s awesome to learn from these old fellasI have muzzleloaders older than you!
