Here we go again . Yes , in all aspects of life , we do . Drive on the correct side of the road . Imagine if we decided "today I shall drive on the left" .

Er , Tac ,
your message appeared three times . Not your fault , but interestingly , others of us in the UK have had messages multiplied , it seems that it gets multiplied on its trip across the water .
By the way , your mention of driving on the left , as do most countries in the world , gives me cause to wonder if that is why I keep getting other drivers beeping their horns at me .
Must look inti that .
Bob , if you pick up on this , it is the same sort of thing that I emailed you about , multi messages .
So far , I have seen it happen to Rod , Tac , me and I think also the other Rod . But none from elsewhere . Coincidence ? All from UK ?

[b]Thanks to all of you for the well thought out responses to the topic. I had no preconceived right or wrong answers for your answers.
Up until this point, I tried to be very careful not to express my own opinion on this topic. I tried to be especially careful in the wording of the question. I didn’t want to skew the answers. I also posted similiar questions on three other forums [just to get a greater variety of answers, ONLY!] to see if there was a significant difference in the types of responses.
My own opinion is --> We have no obligation! However, I believe it is a good thing if we do choose to share our hobby with others, and [our] community. Without naming names, there have been several of you that have really been “encouragers” to me in developing the HedgeApple RioGram RR. I believe there is something special about trains, model trains, and especially Garden RRs,and I wouldn’t want that to just “fade away into the sunset.” The comparasons between interpersonal interactions within different scales [Z,N,HO,S,O,&G] in some threads, were particularily enlightening to me.
Again, thanks for all the great replies.
BTW, the idea for this thread came from a discussion with some WAGRS club members recently about "obligation, duty, or desire to “share the hobby.”
