This is Great

Just read this in "The Tweak". It is from Smokestack and Nationals "Convention Restrospectives' article. Just wanted to share for those who may have not had a chance to read it yet.

"So, I close with a challenge to you. Give more than you take from the hobby. Leave the hobby (if you must) in better shape than when you found it. Help others enjoy the game. If you are a talker ,then learn to be a listener. If you lack patience for new hobbyists, then slow down and
put yourself in their shoes. Someone took you by the hand and was patient with you when you stuck your head in the door and peered over a board. Don’t tear down your own league mates. Build them up and revel in their triumphs on and off the field. If your feathers have been ruffled lately...unruffle them! Celebrate what makes us unique and passionate about the hobby. Let’s spread the love!
