Hi Mauser George and Sieger, I hope you won't be offended if I offer you some gray haired advice. Get a grip! Sorry, poor choice of words. Keep your cool! I know you are both experienced, knowledgeable, collectors, and it's no fun to be disagreed with publicly, but that's the nature of a discussion forum like this. You have both presented very strong arguments, and we have all benefited from this debate. Please don't let it degenerate into a mean spirited exchange. Your friend, Norm

I have enough gray hair right now, what little I have left of it.

Really, I don't think that he has presented any argument at all, but rather, has been argumentative.

Please don't let it degenerate into a mean spirited exchange. Your friend, Norm

Dear Norme:

Excellent advise, if you could get him to take it!

To keep the peace, my advise would be for Mr. George to neither read nor respond to my posts at all. I, in turn, would be most happy to do the same favor for him.

Thanks for your kind concern.

Norme:

Thank you for your posting as I believe you are 100% correct in your observation.

Some forum members statements, message high-jacking, know it all attitude and expert on everything statements tend to get old fast. These same members postings I feel are condescending in their statements and their attempts to speak down to others. It’s not what one says, but how one says it. Yet some folks are just not confortable around others and fell that they must always be one up on everyone else!

I feel everyone is entitled to their option. If I am off base or incorrect in what I post on this forum, I would appreciate if it was brought to my attention.

I will never boast that I am expert, how important I am, how much money I make, what I do for a living, that I am acquainted with famous or import people as this BS is not at all relevant to this forum!

FORUM MEMBERS, please accept my sincere apologies if I have offended any of you with my posting!

Regards,

An excellent self-critique George. Thank you for your honesty.

I really don't see how your comment on my memory above added anything to the thread. This is one small example of your "off base" postings.

"FORUM MEMBERS, please accept my sincere apologies if I have offended any of you with my posting!"

I accept your apology, and hope that this is an end to the juvenile behavior.

You make me laugh! I was reminded of an important lesson by a fellow forum member that I have lost sight off.

It’s never a good idea to lower oneself to argue at another person’s level!

Da, George;

Just keep stirring the pot, buddy!

For Sieger and Mauser George...

Norm tried gently the other day to suggest you give it up......

I will tell you that I for one am tired of you two filling up space with your personal attacks back and forth......

It's boring and adds nothing at all to what IMO this forum is all about.

One of you used the term "juvenile behavior" and I will tell you that that pretty much nailed it...........

I would hope a Moderator get's involved...........
