Todd SchultzI'm with McKee and Newcomb.I think MUCH more space should have been allowed here. The references to Chao are ridiculous, IMO. Any shots at PSA are fair game and here's what I think happened:
1. People are all wired about the various auctions and what's going on right now in the hobby, which is completely understandable;
2. OP is kind of a one-trick pony, but so what for now?
3. You may want to bash the OP for bringing his squabbles here, but I see no less blame for the followers and their "contributions" to this forum, whom are just as unfamiliar to me.
4. PSA bashing is OK by me-period and always. There will be some good things to say about them too--fair enough, let's hear it.
5. The topic is old and well known to all of us--but it's new to the OP, and would be very interesting on any given day, and do I dare say, would be given much more play if initiated by a "regular" poster.
6. The references to the Templeton as post-war is irrelevant and condescending, IMO.
7. You want new blood here--chasing them away like this does no good. At least OP had a Ruth Goudey to talk about--the CU enforcement squad seemed to offer zero in pre-war.
8. It's a little awkward to have basically strangers carry on their feud here, and it shouldn't be countenanced for any significant time. But let's allow a wide berth when it comes to free speech, whether it makes us comfortable or not.
My two cents.
