    Eh
    I like flea market term

    It’s the only one I’m aware of that’s named that way

    But I don’t understand why it’s not just the header for gear on sale... why is the clubhouse under this flea market subject line?

    For me, stuff like this never goes away always lingering in the mind, occasionally surfacing to torture me now and then.

    And for me, it's wondering what happens if you have, say, a barn -- and you decide to decorate the top of it, so you get a cupola for it... and then you decide you really like that, so you get another one.
    Do you then have a couple a cupolas? Or are they a couple a cupolae?

    Keeps me up at night.

    (probably a good thing we don't have a barn)

    Burn it dowwwwwwnnnnnnn!!!!

    I just want to go back to the days of paper forums. This digital age shtuff is for the nerds.

    Step #1 - If you have a question, jot it down in a piece of paper, run to staples for 50+ copies, and then mail out to the majority of contributing members. Once it hits the mail system, sit back and await a response.

    Step #2………

    I don’t really know how any of that is going to work once you receive your responses, but….

    Step #3 - PROFIT!!!

    That would be a question for the current caporegime of the cupola cognoscenti.

    That's a good start Viking but we'll be expecting an increased effort and results Vis a Vis your namesake

    On a side note, just curious as to why the pic file format " .webp " isn't supported.?

    Another thing that has happened:

    I have a difficult time making the jump to page 2 of the Recent Discussions.
