Re: Re: November/December

Hi All.

A couple of responses to ‘matters’ posted here. Re the electric Traction, I had a call from John Gillard today, who is talking about giving me an article on the tech details of the electric Traction. Knowing John, I can’t believe he saw this thread here (he doesn’t believe in computers), so it must be pure chance that he had the same idea. I’ll put it in FP when I get it.

Regarding the average age of members, funnily enough I was talking to John Oates at the NEC last Friday and he commented that it would be interesting to know the same thing. We all assume that all members are about a hundred years old, but maybe that’s because the members who turn up for gatherings are all ‘greybeards’. John felt that trying to find out members’ ages would create a stink, but I wonder…. Perhaps a questionnaire on the back of the cover sheet that goes out with FP? We could also ask things like “Are you male, female or trans”…. that might produce a few letters to the Editor 😆

What are your thoughts on this?

Cheers,

Ed.
