Kevin,
one more comment and I need to shut up. :-)

This is a great topic. I have always been amazed how in every social situation people first come together and are excited by what they have in common. "WOW, we both like Science Fiction!(Modeling/ Classic Cars/ Motorcycling/ Sports)!"

...and then immediately set out to differentiate themselves from the same people!

"Oh, but you like Star Wars and I like Star Trek, you like Aircraft and I like Armor, you like Ford and I like Chevy, you ride Harley I ride Honda, you like the Bears, I like the Giants!"

This is part of what makes us human.... I kind of enjoy seeing it play out sometimes.

Steve
