I read this group, the flight sim group and groups dedicated to off road trucks and dirt bikes. All of them have the same kind of freaky people who love their hobby single-mindedly. I must be 5 times as weird, because I'm fanatical about a whole bunch of hobbies! Tim
Hi all I got a tiny bonsai tree in the supermarket today. So when I got home I searched the newsgroups for bonsai groups - found 2 - they are just as weird and freaky as us - they just have a different fetish :-) -- Thomas S�rensen Wilkensvej 45, 2. th 2000 Frederiksberg Denmark

Yep, it still surprises me when I see a familiar name in alt.hobbies.slotcars, or a computer group... -- Tiger Stadium R.I.P. 1912-1999 Own Grand Prix Legends?

But the really interesting thing (for me at least; I am easily pleased) is that you keep bumping into the same people in different newsgroups. Birds of a feather, I guess, but I see some regulars from here in a newsgroup for notebook PCs, and then there is crossover from that newsgroup to the alt.porsche group... it's that whole "six degrees of separation" thing happening.
