Rich,

I really appreciate your constructive criticism as well as comments I've received from Barry and others.

I do think that people are blaming me because my threads are not very scholarly and they think the nature of this Board is changing. However, I do think it is unfair to pin that on me.

It is not my imagination but I know of individuals and lurkers that are afraid to post on any topic because they feel that people might jump on them. As a matter of fact I've seen many posters preface their posts with "this may be a dumb comment, but..."

I simply do not like the feel of that and I hope that people do not hesitate to post about prewar cards. But also, it would help if people restrain themselves from over-zealous criticism.

You have the right approach, assume that people are not trying to purposely side-track the Board.

Peter C.
