I think it is similar to how each generation thinks the generation after them is worse. Or how some elders talk about the "good ol days" and how they were so much better yet forget the World War and the great depression they lived through.
You are correct Andy. The more our hobby changes the more it stays the same. Every time someone says "gee, there are a lot of idiots on the board" I tell them to put 5000 people in a room and see what you get. As we have gotten bigger, which I think is better, it's just the way it is. Also, many times, when I or someone else posts things about the history of our hobby from 30-75 yrs ago, we see the EXACT same sentiments being bantered about. To me it's all good. We need the wild swings to the right and left to have harmony, imo. But then again my IQ hasn't reached 54 yet.
