Debby,
Although we will never know how it may have turned out, I can say that had I been in the room when this lot was auctioned, it would have brought more. As it turns out, I ran up to my room to grab the floppy disk containing a listing of the slot cards to give to the gentleman who won that auction. When I got back to the auction, I was unable to find him and I STILL do not know who he was. If anyone knows who he was, I still have the disk to give to him.
I know of at least one other chipper who was trying to arrange financing when the hammer fell on the chip auction.
Those chips were certianly the deal of the convention.
Regardless, we all owe Luke a BIG THANKS for his efforts and support of the building fund.
Best Regards,
Murph
