Archie, John, Janice, Bruce, Michael, Mark, Greg, Ralph, Don & all you etc.'s,
This hobby would not exist as it is today, without your unselfish sharing of information about chips, casinos, ashtrays, swizzle sticks, slot cards, & even slot wipenaps. Anyone who has written a guide knows that it can't be done without the help of others. It is a labor of love & usually ends up costing the author or authors money to publish these guides which benefits the entire chipping community. I am disturbed to have a chipper say to me or an other "author", "I have a chip you don't have listed in your guide & it's incomplete!"
If you ask to borrow the piece or get a copy of some information which did not turn up in you research, & are told "NO", you just have to wonder what in the world is that guy thinking. Information sharing is the lifeblood of this hobby & I for one, hope it remains so for a long time.
