Hello /wave/ welcome to the forum.

I remember our discussion here on old school, new school, middle school...but while I was out for a walk, I stumbled across an article today that mentioned 'classic' and 'modern' titles.... and found it amusing that the 'classic' is from 1995, and the 'modern' is from 2006.
