"Dot" posts
O.K., I know that I'm curious, but I've seen a number of "dot" posts lately; that is, the post only has a "." and nothing else. I know that this will kick off the marker as showing a new comments has been added to the post. This is a great way to bring a previous post "up to the forefront" again. Am I missing something?

Model railroad products and availability....
Hello all....
I have been playing with trains to some degree since I was a little kid. And I remember when all of the manufacturers moved the construction and assembly jobs and opportunities to other countries like China etc.... But I have to say I feel this has come to bite us in the caboose. Further, this was predicted by many modelers back when the jobs first went over seas. Now the development of these products take a very long time to get to us. Further, the prices are no longer super cheap. The prices are going up and up and up.

Easy Model Railroad Inventory Development Progress
Version 4.0 is being worked with a release expected about the end of the summer. I have added an Owner field to the rolling stock and locomotive records. One of my beta testers has his stuff and his wife has hers. It occurred to me that clubs might be able to better use Easy Model Railroad Inventory.
