Keith shares more than almost anyone else I know. He just doesn't share it here. He has written numerous articles, for many hobby publications, some going back almost 40 years. Sharing, in a forum that would bring up negativity from other issues would be foolish, on his part. He writes a blog that is mostly about baseball but occasionally talks about cards.
And, just to be clear, it's not just Keith. Kit Young came on here (the old board) and we had a long thread about a deal gone bad from 20 years prior. I don't think he ever came back. Why would he?
Periodically, someone attacks one particular board member because he "associates with criminals!!!" The fact that he is a criminal defense attorney is lost in the attack. What he does for a living is a vital part of our society. Without his profession, our system of law and government would fall apart. Is he zealous at it? Yep. That's what makes him good at it. But he's here because he likes cards, not because of his criminal associates.
Guys like elmalo should be shown the door after their first post. If you bother to register and then spend your first post calling someone a "miserable human being," for any issue unrelated to cards, you should expect be booted.
