You proved my point... In your haste to quickly disparrage me on the board, as you've tried to do in the past, you proved the fact that your ill-informed about what the Union Pacific Licensing Agreement says.
I find it interesting that we agree that U.P. has the right to protect its current trademarks of "Union Pacific" but not its fallen flags, yet you still want to support what U.P. is doing.
I said "As the contract stands now". Its as clear as black and white, you cannot support only part of the current contract. You either support the whole document, or none of it. Suggesting that I might be an "Alarmist" (using your words) because I will not support a contract that is clearly corporate greed is irrational.
I'll suggest you work on your reading and comprehension skills first, as you seem to have a problem understanding what I type, then I suggest getting your hands on what the licensing agreement actually says.
I think you'll be quite suprised yourself.
And one more thing, please stop following me around the boards, trying to discredit everything I say, its getting old now.
Where have I tried to "disparage" you on this board? As I recall you're the one that fired the first volley by calling anyone that disagrees with you a using YOUR words "self hating model railroader". All I have done is to state my opinion, the reasoning for that opinion and return fire for attacks on my character and that of anyone else that disagrees with the great JDFX.
Seems to me that you're the one that cant handle the spirit of message boards - open communication, by attacking someone for having differing opinions.
As for your comment about my reading and comprehension skills, the same goes for you too.
You should get out of that "everything or nothing" or "your with us or against us" view on things. Yes it is possible to not entirely agree or disagree on an issue as it stands. And contrary to the "black and white" definition you gave the UP contract, nothing is ever defined in black and white these days only a different shade of grey.
By your reasoning we should throw away the entire US Constitution because we might disagree with the 9th ammendment (speaking of disparagement) or any other ammendment we might not like.
And I'm sorry if you think I sit around all day plotting to "disparage" JDFX, LOL, like my only goal is to trip you up every time you open your big mouth.
Think before you speak, YOU might be surprised.
