I got a nice e-mail from Ricker a week or so ago too. I so enjoy getting e-mails from strangers. In addition to Ricker I also got an e-mail that same day from some nice fellow in Nigeria asking for my help with his special problem. I don't know about the fellow in Nigeria, but I'm assuming Ricker is a chip collector and would hope in addition to mailing out e-mails expressing his conservative political point of view, he'd post on the chip board and let us know what kind of chips he collects, how long has he been in the hobby, etc.
