...I can not let this one go.

Did the stamp hobby have an "Official" Stamp grading book like we do?
Did the stamp hobby have stamp dealers will to advise ICG?
Did the stamp hobby have stamp dealers showing slabbed stamps?
Did ICG come to the Stamp BB and tell them, it did not matter what the stamp collectors thought, they were slabbing stamps anyway?
Did ICG slab valuable stamps and show them at the stamp show?
Did ICG slab Limited Edition stamps and show them at stamp shows?

If our current board would have at least passed a resolution saying "The CCGTCC did not reconize a grading system" the Anti-Slabbers would probably not have come together. Why did this not happen if in fact 4 out of 5 board members are in fact against slabbing.

How can anyone even suggest " Just sit back and it will go away."
The 90% ICG is quoting is the number of chippers that do not want slabbing in our hobby, IMO. I have no idea how they managed to turn the percentages around.

Nate, I don't mean to pick on you. I apoligize if it seems that way. I just don't think we have even one day to sit around and "See what happens."
