The only reason everyone (yes) picks on Dan is because he consistently says things that are incorrect, and fails to ever acknowledge when he is proven wrong. Then, months later, he will actually come back with the same thing, and again post the wrong information, and again proven wrong, disappears from whatever posts show he was wrong, and the cycle starts again.

OMG, this is terrible news. My heart goes out to his family, and the railfan community at large. His collection of traction stuff is very extensive. I'm not sure how he was able to get his hands on those things, but he always seemed to have some one-off document or picture.

It started with the Turtle but now has expanded to many others.

But I have met Dan many times and while we don't agree on everything Dan is a stand up guy and really has treated me nicely everytime I went to Baltimore to meet him.

Come on, let's all be serious here. Joe Saitta passed away, let us pay respects and KINDLY keep the flame wars and stupidity off this posting.

Goodness, people speak about certain other posters on here who start trouble in postings, take a look at what is going on here now, and that poster has not been on regularly in some time!!

Please folks, keep this respectful, and save the stupidity for OT Chat or some other place. And it is ironic how someone a few days ago asked why people who used to post here have left this board alone. I hope he is seeing this whole thread and subthread that has resulted here, and now seeing before him the answer to his question. The stupidity on this board, and the ongoing redundant discussions are the chief reasons why.

Again, to ALL concerned, please keep the postings on this thread respectful in regard to Joe. Thank you!!
