Larry, Please read what I'm writing, I don't consider anyone the enemy, not even the people who I feel want to hurt the hobby, I consider the Idea of slabbing and the profiteering behind that idea to be the enemy. I love this hobby as I know you do. I think 99.9% of our friends on this board feel the same way. I also feel some may get over zealous and say things that are inflamatory in trying to protect this hobby. The one bad thing I've found about communicating through this medium is one cannot see a persons face or hear the tone in another persons voice and a lot of things get taken wrong. You or anyone else can have all of the slabbed chips you want in your collection as far as I'm concerned. If you chose to collect the stupid things I'd still consider you a friend although I must admit if you asked me over to see your slabs I'd probably have something else to do that night<g>. As far as the list is concerned I think we can still disagree on its purpose, etc. and still remain friends, can't we? I have seen some pretty heated exchanges on this board, gone to a show and seen the very people involved in those exchanges laughing and slapping(No Rene, they weren't slabbing each other) each other on the back. I think that's a wonderful thing, how members can disagree here and still get together to do what they love and still be friends. Thanks for listening and I'm sorry about any misunderstanding. Jim
