[WWI] Kids and kits

[Helen and Chris]

  >Can we compare that to building accurate scale models of real historical things?
   
  Yes, we can. And if you're gonna get a highfalootin attitude about it then the guys(and gals) here who are building real airplanes might just get an attitude about the toys you build. 

  >To me, this is one of the things that DETERS kids from building model airplanes.

  To me, this kind of thinking is what makes kids look at us as old and useless. 
  E.

  You're right Ernest.  If we want people to value what we do, then we must value what they do.  There's plenty of room for all of us, after all.
  It'd just be nice if we could make a few conversions (or encourage more people back to modelling) to stop Pegasus, Sierra et al going squit.

  Bless those who gave us our joy.

  Chris.
