Pete,

Attracting the younger crowd for possibly all the wrong reasons is no way a good thing for infusing the hobby with new blood.

Maybe it is a generational thing too. We got in this hobby to collect, they are getting into this hobby to invest. And that is a sad commentary actually for getting new people involved in a collector hobby.

Such is life I suppose.......
