A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}

Can I make a small suggestion? I think when new folks come to the forums, they see the thread and might start to read it but somwhere around page 15 or 20 they have to go eat dinner or pee. They mmight come back to it and start reading again, or they may try again another day, or they'll read the last few posts, see the OF is great and just move on to shorter threads. It's *really hard* as a new memeber to try to take in the enormity of 350 pages of content. It took me nearly 2 years, in small bites, to get fron the first page to the last. Jumping to the end doesn't really help because it's clear we missed So Much in those 300+ pages. The folks that are still reading and commenting are the folks that have been around since the very start because for new members, the price of admission into this thread now is huge! Perhaps it's time to start a new thread? Maybe make an Old Fella FAQ so new members can catch up on his and your story? It's not that people don't care any more or don't want to hear about it, it's just really hard to stay on top of such a huge thread that has so many things going on at once!

Just my 2 cents, worth all you paid for it. I'll go back under my rock now.
