I just realized that what I thought was the same image in my (digital) collection is actually another photo taken shortly before or after the other (with hats on):

You guys are good. I wish I got that much help around here

Wow. Impressive photograph. But more impressive is the knowledge here. Always amazes me.
So as I inch closer to retirement people ask, what happens to all that knowledge when you retire. Young kids don't want to learn or have the patience to learn this business.
What happens when the old timers retire here? Is there a generation coming up willing to carry on this knowledge? To learn all about this hobby and 1900's baseball? I would imagine the average age is far greater than 40ish?
