Hi,
I'm and old Elite veteran ("Arch Angel" back in the eighties) and just wanted to say hello and you did a wonderful job with Oolite.

Old geezer. Amiga veteran. Love the stuff the youngers have done with such a beautiful concept.
We live on a small farm, chickens, geese, ducks and too many predators. My wife quilts and I build replicas of flintlock rifles. Sound like country hicks?..lol.. ..the house is wired for WiFi, backup generators, hobby grade quads flying in the barnyard during summer... Old age has it's advantages.

Re: Introduce Yourself.
Well indeed, new people are always welcome to this small backwater of the internet we like to call home.
Quilting eh? My mother in law quilts (very nice lady, we get along very well indeed) I work more with chainmaille which is a little heavy for quilting.
