TO scared to make this attack in public I think, so I have sent it back to
where it should be.

Why is it that anyone who doesn't agree with DSRM instantly labelled as dumb?
Maybe we aren't the dumb ones parting with the cash for dumb reasons.

I know why DSRM brought the tank. But why did they express the need to get a
WORKING one if it is going to be static. Also the wagon it is going on can
never actually be traced to actually carrying a tank in the first place. Yes I
do know all the proper tank carrying wagons are gone. Where as the type you are
planning to use has only been seen in a few photo's I believe in this service.

Not what I would call a mainstay job for these wagons now would you.

The money spent on buying the tank would have gone along way to further work on
your site, or even basis for more collections for your museum.

No I am not a memeber and would not become with DSRM in the current state it is
in. ones it reaches the point where it has been trying to get for how many
years now? I would then consider it. Yes I was an ACTIVE member of a couple of
succecfull groups in NSW untill I had to move interstate. IN time I will then
join some local groups who I see fit.

I feel like I'm in a rut.  Every time I go to bed at night,
I find myself just getting up again in the morning.
