Dick -
Welcome to the Club, BB and hobby.
Just skip over the controversial "stuff" and go straight "for the chips". That's what I do. While they're here busy arguing, we can get some "heck-of-a-good-deals". <G>

I have found the people around here to be as ethical, generous, patient and informative as a group of people can be... I think you will find that too.
With club elections, post-holiday debriefing and half the country snowed in with nothing to do -- things should lighten up Easter. <hahahahahaha>
