I'd been to your website a few times and read of your affiliation with Mooseman.
So, when you first joined the forum, I felt something special was happening.
I was right about that!
I hope you know how glad we all are that your here. Congenial, diplomatic, innovative,
cheerful and so much more...James understates in calling you a legend, mate.
It was quite a privilege actually meeting you a few weeks ago!
Thanks Rog, for who you are and all you do!

Geez Chuck,
What can I say ??? Though I can restore...YOU can create...big difference and I admire the creativity you bring to the hobby with your engine designs built up from and in some case OF scrap!!!
If you ever get down the Indianapolis way, a stop at the Temple of Steam is a must do...got enough pieces for a banner steam up.
cheers buddy,
Rog

Rog and I have been talking for some three years now....in that time we have gone from two guys who share an interest to a point where I think of him as the older brother I never had!
Pleasure and a privilege knowing you Rog!

Oh my gosh...I'm blushing. Yup, Odilon and I are brothers...I'm the older, shorter, rounder one...he's the younger, taller, slender one. 
Reminds me of that movie where Danny De'Vito and Arnold Shwartzenager are cast as "Twins". Just to look at us you would never guess we were brothers!!!
Seriously...it has been a pleasure getting to know Odilon as a fellow collector, family man and friend...we email more than my real brother and I do!!!
It's kind of neat to have friends around the world...this forum is a special place, like a "cyberpub" where we all share our hobby and more. I am definitely glad Odilon pointed me this way!!!
cheers,
Rog

....and I expect that that is the last time anyone will ever call me slender!
Thanks Rog - as the forum creed goes: you're a legend!
