Okay there !
All you fellows , including yours truly , have a problem . In the thread about how long we might live , it was clear as a bell . We can't go for a long time guys . Why ? Well ,we are bonified , dyed in the wool teachers !
Whaddya mean we ain't teachers ? How many times do we talk about builds and answer folks questions about these here model kits ?
That , and we are constantly striving to improve our own skills , and not knowing it , are willingly passing that knowledge down the line .
That's what a good teacher does , isn't it ? pass knowledge down to our descendents.There will be many who are now just getting their first issue of F.S.M. and if life doesn't blow up in everyone's face they will read our comments on line and when the comments or tips are recycled so there you have it .
Like it or not all our styles and all we are teachers is out there , so we have to stick around till those in their thirties are in their seventies . As for us already past seventy , hell , I don't know about you , but I'd rather pass on at the bench doing what I love ! T.B.
