attack? not in the least.

Fair enough bad word choice on my part, but my point is I was just responding to what you said and not looking to derail the thread. I thought perhaps you had misinterpreted Doug's point. And if you can point me to any discussion about cards which did not involve the scandal and I tried to make it about the scandal please show me.

I have not seen people trying to “put a positive spin on it and fault people for reacting to it with disgust.” you seem to imply that if someone wants a thread to just talk cards, he’s doing just that.

That was a dig at Joe Orlando's latest missive, should have been clearer, was discussed in another thread. Sorry for any confusion.

I didn’t take anything by Peter’s post. Just saying in general - let’s leave the psa/pwcc talk to the psa/pwcc threads and keep it out of the others.

You couldn't put a positive spin on a washing machine....

I do think it's a bit ridiculous that just about every single thread, at least on the prewar section of this board - turns into a rage session about the current scandal and those who have done disservice to our hobby. Trust me, I don't have my head in the sand. I'm plenty upset myself and have done more than my fair share of spreading communication and warning others about what is going on to others on other sites, many who at least from their comments would seem to be actually uninformed, or at best woefully misinformed. But on the flip side I still do love my (mostly mid-to-lower) grade vintage baseball cards. I like talking about them and discussing their ridiculous nuances here online. And reading through these posts sometime to separate the wheat from the chaff in terms of the vitriol and personal attacks can get a bit stupid. I don't (at least I don't think...) know any of you all personally, and I haven't really had that long of an online relationship with you in these forums, so some of it I guess is either in jest, or taken at least less seriously by some than it would appear to Joe Public surfing the forum. So I'm not beating up on anyone - but does it get beyond annoying at times? Yes.

Just my 2 cents.

Shout-out to Heritage!!!
Just got my Part 2 of the David Hall Collection Catalog.
It came with an addition T206 collecting booklet. I really think was cool to include this. Those who do not participate or read N54 on this subject matter, well here it is.
Something interesting to read for sure.
Thanks Heritage.
