Josh,

That's exactly right. If you guys were logical, you would say that I don't know beans about vintage cards and take everything I say with a grain of salt. Instead of having a higher standard for my posts, it's more realistic to have a lower standard. Lighten up people it's only baseball cards.

Lee starts a thread like this and people jump on me for telling my side of the story. You may not want to hear my side of my story but I guarantee you that a lot of people do not want to take the chance that somebody would call them an idiot. Barry S. said himself that he would be mortified if somebody made him the butt of jokes. I think it's unfortunate...but that is why many people just lurk. It's amazing that people feel free to hurl abuse, but are horrified if anybody actually argues back.

I'm not trying to be anybody's champion, I'm just trying to make sure you understand what the newby and the lurker is thinking.
