Shannon,

I'm normally one of the people who sit back and observe,and I usually don't say much. But for you I'm stepping up to the plate. 1. I collect L.E.'s and don't apoligize for it. 2. Even though I don't collect other kinds of chips,I still respect everyone elses choices of what they like, and so far no one has looked down on me for my choice. 3. You must be very new to chip collecting, otherwise you would realize that on this board you are dealing with some of the most well educated and well informed chip collectors in the world. 4. And finally your post
speaks of your youth .You show no respect for your elders for either age or knowledge. If I spoke to my elders in the way you spoke to the elders on this board, I wouldn,t have been able to sit for a week.

Best Regards,
Ralph
