If my recollection is correct it stands for "The Other O Gauge" and is an outdated reference to fans of MTH.  I maybe wrong though.

That sounds good.  I have been on the forum a while now, and TOOG was before my time here.  I always thought it was one of these two:

1) An old timer from the AOL days who showed resistance to new ideas, argued a lot, and did a lot of name calling.  This matches Jon's "Thou Shalt Not Question a TOOG."

or

2) The opposite, the new guys with a broader view of the O world and tried to make the forum less divisive.  This better matches "The Other O Gauge".

Whatever it meant, it is no longer applicable here.  Members of this forum do a great job in keeping thing civil and helping each other, even when they disagree.  The moderators also do a great job when someone temporarily forgets themself and shows a little too much emotion.
