If my memory is correct I believe the forum was started while Myron Biggar owned the magazine but it was a short time after that he sold everything to Rich and the current owners...

This forum started some time in 2000, when the magazine was indeed owned by Myron Biggar. I had been doing the OGR web site for some time and had encouraged Myron to start an online forum.

We closed the deal to purchase the magazine from Myron in August 2002. The original partners in OGR were:

Rich Melvin
Ed Boyle
Jim Barrett (deceased)
Fred Dole (deceased)

The first issue of the magazine under our ownership was Run 189, the October 2002 issue.

Time passes quickly when you're having fun...
