    Oh ok, but I'm not posting anything until: A) they recognize that I have been posting on the forum since close to day one, hardly qualifies me for "polkie" status and B) all the new nonsense quells. I come in for audio related, and some fun but the new forum rush to post stuff just to post doesn't interest me at all. I didn't mean for you to think I wan't coming in to read or post...I just meant I was outta here, for now...not for good.

    I went to the very last post in the clubhouse and there it was, begging me to bring it all the way back up to the top after 13 years. Seems like old cars and old threads are quite the same. Dust them off a bit, and some gas and they tend to fire right up.

    If I recall correctly, Mike and Bob McG were brothers from NE. Into cool stuff like hardcore Civil War reenactment. Lots of love for SDAs from them early on in the forum infancy......

    I remember Mike's site, it was an excellent SDA reference and I learned a lot from Bob. They were the original SDA mod guys.
