He just wrote "jerks"... That's pretty tame and anyone getting upset about it is making a big deal over nothing. I don't know anybody who can't say they have never been called a jerk before! He may be this beloved Class A witer that is to "supposed" to do everything the "right" way and all but he is still just a guy talking like a guy...he isn't the President or the Governor of ILL. He is one of us!!!! If that stops anyone from buying the book from him, then that's the way it goes. I'm just glad he has printed the book and put so much hard time and long nights into giving us something pretty concrete to help us find valuable info!! Sheeeesssh, this is just a group of individuals from all over the world who all have differant personalities but have this hobby in common. Forget the critique and listen to the key parts of what he wrote.
And Mark... Fantastic Ashtray Site...wow, you have made my life and buying of ashtrays so much easier! Way to go and thank you just as much in thanking James for the hard work you have put into your site. You both have done 2 very nice things for us...the collectors of now and the future!!
Now go to bed ya jerk! HA!
