I believe it was Lionel Carter who once said once your collection gets large and has some value, it becomes difficult to share it with others because you are not sure who to trust. |

There are also unhinged people in the world who can do a lot of damage with a name and some locally identifying details. Everyone's employer is only an e-mail away and people are free to make up anything they want.

The video makes for a stark contrast. Mr. Carter was such a class act, yet when I see Bill Mastro speaking, it makes my skin crawl.

Now more than ever, I believe there was more to that theft than met the eye. And as I recall the collection was returned intact, not recovered by the police.

I know it’s the water cooler section but I really wish the whole subject of racism/sexsim/politics would be off limits here. I get bombarded by it 24/7... television, work, school, family dinners, I’m even subjected to it at the grocery store checkout where I have nothing to stare at but tabloids as I’m stuck in line due to some poor chap having to be both a cashier and bag boy. Also the whole topic has became like some cheesy 80’s drama. Let’s all just talk about our feelings when it’s truly all about posturing to inflate one’s own ego. Just disgraceful IMO and the whole message is lost. Sorry for ranting but it’s just so frustrating to constantly have it thrown into your face and even more tiring and depressing that you can forecast the responses verbatim.

Haha, well touche! It's more a play on the 80's than anything else... I'm surprised the username and avatar don't ring a bell for anyone on here.
