It pains me to see any chipper knocking any chip.
An old timer even knocked LE's in the club magazine last year. Why?
Another old timer knocked them in a letter to the editor ahile back. I responded with 2 columns in the next 2 issues.
IMO, LE's have brought us more new members than obsolete chips have.
I think there are more LE collectors in the hobby than anyone knows.
I also think this statement will be proven soon!!!!

Rene's LE book will only be the 1st of 2 LE books to be published.
It will be very interesting to see the number of these books sold.
I hope LE collectors will make a statement when these books are published.

BTW, CT, I think I saw LE's on your table for sale at the last convention.
I say, "Let the hobby grow"
