Hi Paul ----- generous offer & I'd be interested in filling in the holes in my collection.

BUT, I understood from Mel Jung that he and Armin Pfaender bought the entire rack of SJ's chips when it closed. If you're lurking, Mel, can you confirm or deny this for us, please?

Also, it was my understanding that the owner of Sonoma Joe's was a woman, either Patty or Gloria something (one or both of whom owned some other cardrooms, including P&G). I remember reading an article that Mel wrote about this somewhere. Can't put my finger on it at the moment. Help, Mel.

Nevetheless, if you get the chips, I'm interested!! ----- jim o\-S
