I remember him getting into a few heated debates on the board. I told him he could stay as long as he wouldn't trounce upon 3 individuals. He said he couldn't do that so he would just leave. He left on his own accord. He never was banned from this board. I always liked Joe. Even during his hiatus he and I emailed back and forth quite frequently. Unlike someone else who can't control himself, Joe never did get upset with me...at least about that. I always considered Joe as part of the "old guard". They are a generation that we are losing every day and it's a shame. Those morals and philosophies (in general) are something our country could use again, imo.

Joe told the story about the Texas National and the Card Doctor(s) numerous times on this board. He had a strong passion. I always looked forward to what he had to say and he had my respect. Glad to see his collection is being dispersed professionally.
