I used to post here often. I remember when IC fliers were suggesting that the e-fliers go away and form their own newsgroup. I remember when this group had little surveys to see who all wanted to move some place more agreeable. Many of the IC fliers were thinking they would have to make a choice between IC or E-power, rather than they just consider E-power to be just another form of the same hobby. Then my schedule precluded my reading this newsgroup. I came back a while back and had to load several thousand messages. I was amazed at how many E-posts there were. I thought it was an anomaly. I have recently had some news reader problems and was forced to use Google. (Ugh!) So I didn't read the group much. I got my good news reader working this a.m. and came here and had to download another few thousand titles. I am sorta' surprized at the ratio of E-model posts now. What I saw before was no anomaly. I would guess that the ratio between IC posts and E-flight posts has reversed now with E-flight being predominant. Don't anyone try to make something controversial from this observation. But those who have stayed with the group might not have noticed this change because it happened over such a long time.
