You know, Amery, I find it funny...
Anyone who knows me knows that I know a few people in the industry as well...
And I have done more than a little to help shape and develop the industry, hopefully in the direction of respect and integrity towards the collector and enthusiast, while still respecting those who have other priorities different from "purists"
I have also gone out of my way to help total strangers with questions, problems, or just plain opinion sharing...
God knows I have spent many long hours on planes and in meetings with "industry luminaries" endlessly discussing things which ultimately, frustratingly, did nothing but allow much hot air to be spent without much results...
Yet I have never felt the irresistable urge to make every post I write about what I have done, who I know, or how I have done so much for the field...
Maybe I'm just stupid and naive, like so many have told me...
Oh, well.
Cheers,
TM
