Default " He was black--take my word for it" ??

I wrestled with editing Julie's original post, as I thought that her comment was extraneous to the point of her story. I left it up, in the hope that nobody else would notice, and the whole thing would slide. I am leaving it up, now, for a couple more days to give Julie time to respond (if she wishes) to some of the questions that have been asked.
Personally I find the comment offensive, but more importantly as moderator of the board, I don't think the board should be a place for discrimanatory comments (unless they are about bald white texans who like to sniff cards ) and I don't want the board to be seen as a place where these types of comments are tolerated.
I also don't believe that Julie meant anything by the comment and still like her and her posts. I also think that this is a board to discuss vintage baseball cards and I share the wish of others to get over this issue and move on to discuss the hobby we love.
