The time has arrived for the National to be a semi-annual event. Regional major Shows are disappearing. My suggestion is that Baltimore
become a permanent Show in early September. And, the Chicago and California venues alternate annually in mid April.

This hobby is not experiencing the growth it enjoyed in the 1980's & 1990's. In my opinion the diminishing number of quality shows since
then has been one of the major factors causing this lack of growth. Growth is an important factor in sustaining the value of BB cards. If
you do not think this is important, just talk to your average collector of Coins and Stamps. The lack of growth in those hobbies have ad-
versly affected the values of those collectibles.

I've known John Broggi since 1981, I'm thinking that I'll contact him regarding this idea of two National's a year.

In any event, what's your thoughts on this idea ?

In Canada, the Toronto Expo serves as the country's largest show and it is held twice annually, in late April/Early May and in November.

Since you like my idea of two National Shows per year, how about running a Net54 poll on this ?

Or instruct me on how to conduct it, and I'll do it.

Hey Ted
Lets see if we can get the ole dinosaur to be able to do it. Heck, if Barry can do it anyone can do it. :)

What you do is you go start a thread.....at the bottom of the post there will be a little box that says something like "start a poll".....that is where you do it from. You actually hit the "submit reply" button and AFTER that it allows you to do the poll, so don't be afraid to hit the submit button before you see the poll options. We have a testing forum in the post war section, at the botton. I suggest you go over there and try one first. After you try it over there and get the hang of it you can come back over here and do it. I will then go lock that testing thread you started so no one gets a wise idea. :cool:

here is the link to the place with the testing forum...it is at the bottom

Every time I try to do a poll I forget how I did it last time and have to learn it all over again.:(
