I ponder much the same issues every day: Wondering what the best course would be to follow in disposing of the collection. The thought that usually wins out is assuming that I will be able to control the disposition somehow after my demise and hoping that in the spirit realm I will no longer suffer from the obsessive need to hoard stuff.
Al - if I were a ballplayer, I think I would very much dislike owners and executives comingling with the money paid by fans to see me play.
