It is very difficult to be a "wacko" when you're talking to yourself. Remember I said "wacko" not " psycho" ( although some of us are both). I seriously doubt that there are any non-internet wackos. We all needed this sounding board to get started (then there is no stopping us). How many new collectors out there were just drifting along 'til they found this board - and suddenly bam - white water rafting. Hang on, there's a beaver dam coming up (or is that damn beaver?).
