I think everyone will agree that the hobby will be around for a long time, but its popularity is not where it was last season.

To me there's like the mainstream, then there's the underground full of the hardcore enthusiest. It's like that in any sport, hobby, or music scene. When the mainstream is all hip to it, then it's a fad. When the fad wears off, it's not that no one likes it, it's just that the 'cool' kids have moved on. Notice that anyone that is enthusiastic about anything that is not a current trend, is considered a geek. We have computer geeks, record store geeks, school geeks, etc.

I never wanted to be one of the cool kids anyways.

I must be the biggest geek around. I dance salsa, play with minicars, and watch anime. I've got a hot wife, but I think it's not really hip unless she's just a girlfriend. So once again, I'm still geeky.

Oh, and Boris,.........................That's something a geek would say. A geek with a s.....ss..........s...........s.............never mind. Stay secure with yourself. It's what's best.
