I think this far into the game, you're safe, Al.

Thanks, guys.

If you new guys have questions you'd liked answered, especially things you think other newer collectors might not understand, please--fire away here. The first couple of posts will remain pretty much as they are, unless I add to them (which is always a possibility). But after that, the discussion can go anywhere. I could always use the last page I reserved as a list of questions, and I could direct link to the post where the answer is provided.

Just remember, there are no stupid questions. What might seem silly to you, at first, might end up helping somebody greatly down the road. So, don't hold back!
