Gas stations abandoned during the fuel crisis in the winter of 1973-74 were sometimes used for other purposes. This station at Potlatch, Washington, west of Olympia was turned into a religious meeting hall.

Anonymity

I don't believe Misplaced Pages is the place to tout everything about you, so I won't do that here. Let's all just try to work together and make the project better, instead of crusading for our personal POVs. And everyone has a POV.

Contributing to the project

Unlike many I've seen at WP, I live in the real world. I've now contributed several hundred edits, along with a few new articles. I see one of my greatest contributions to be challenging POV-warriors, many of whom don't even realize they are POV-warriors and think they are the ones carrying on such noble work. And yes, that can be frustrating -- but I've raised children, so I'm getting better at exercising patience than I used to be. :-)

Funny stuff

LOL! I've encountered some pretty funny stuff on Misplaced Pages, mostly quotes from POV-pushers who are into self-denial. I'll do my best to update some of them here, instead of on my Talk page, so it doesn't get pushed out of the way.

1. "I don't believe in Evolution, and I don't accept Evolution because of faith, opinion, conviction--I accept Evolution as a fact, because it has been subjected to rigorous scientific analysis, because of the substantial proof, and because a lot of people smarter than I have studied and accepted it. Evolution is not a doctrine, it is not a dogma, and it does not require faith to accept." Orangemarlin 14:00, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
