    Grew up a tenth of a mile from the B&O railroad (everyone who has played Monopoly is familiar with it) and even hitched rides to the next town and then back when I was 10 through 12 years old.

    I'm always still in trouble again

      I agree with that sentiment. I'm not all that old, and I could easily say the same thing.

      Perhaps I misread what Mossy was saying, then.
      I'm not here anymore.

                                Well the thread was about electrodynamics and relativity. And Mags tried to support his case by saying that electromagnets were illegal.
