I think I have heard enough! Mr. Kaplan, your passive aggressive response is not appreciated by anyone and I personally am sick of listening to you. Your negativity is poisoning this club along with some of your do nothing associates. Everyone talks about growing the hobby and growing the club. I have often heard the “Hobby is dying”, in fact the hobby is alive and well and has grown far beyond your imagination with tens of thousands of collectors worldwide. It is the club that is dying! When Archie created this club, it was with the intention of connecting people with similar interest and sharing knowledge. Nothing more! And incidentally he did a great job of that. I joined this club in 1993 and my membership number is 1002. Thirty years later there are less than 1000 active members. I quit this club twice over politics, you don’t need to belong to a club to collect, however it is nice to meet people with similar interests and the club and the chip board offer that opportunity. Thank you Archie for creating this wonderful organization, I’m not sure when we got off track. I have witnessed some very passionate collectors being bullied by you over the last several months and this is not acceptable. If you want to be a jerk and bully someone, here I am, take your best shot. I have big shoulders! Your passion is very misguided!
