Todd Schultzmaybe the better questions are how many here really want to know the truth about the card and of those, is it just a point of interest or curiosity or would it affect your view of the hobby in any meaningful respect?
Seriously, it should not be that difficult to get to the truth here. The witnesses are still alive, it is not some government secret, and a thorough factual investigation would be at least persuasive if not conclusive. There are enough lawyers on this board to know that threats of legal action by Mastro lack substance, if any have even been made. Defamation cases are very difficult to prove, juries hate them, truth is a defense, and Mastro would have to prove damages. Once that door is open, baby, any and all horror stories about Mastro's business practices are fair game if "business reputation" is alleged to have suffered as a result of the Wagner "story". Who wants that potential dirty laundry scrutinized? So maybe these star witnesses are not coming forward because they have nothing? Either way and again, the truth should be out there and the issue capable of being decided if it really is something that people want to know, which leads me back to my initial question.
