My last message of the night:

"The issue of disclosure has never been an issue to the collecting community up until the time of the Joe DiMaggio bat."

This one was just too good to pass up. Troy, the reason it wasn't an issue is because the collecting community at large didn't know this was even going on! I certainly didn't know. Aren't I part of the collecting community?

Come on.

What you really should have written was:

The issue of disclosure has never been an issue to the collecting community because it was a carefully guarded secret of which the vast majority of collectors were unaware of.

That at least sounds more honest.

Then you wrote:

"Once it became an issue, we instituted that policy within 30 days of it being brought to our attention."

ROTFL!!!!

What you really should have written was:

Once our secret was revealed and in became an issue, the public outrage forced us to take "action." Had the public not become aware, we would have continued to operate with the status quo.

Hi-larious. Good night!
