John-- The main item that got Stathi kicked out of MRSR was Martin Hansen. He took great offense when Stathi called him on the carpet for always bragging and using the word 'WE' when describing what some Museum had done, or what locomotive was being restored !! Think about it, John.. It is the Truth. Martin loves to always use the word "WE" on everything he talks about. Stathi called him on it--Martin took offense. End of story !!
