    I know you did, and now me & Sally are both blown away because we didn't join you. We "blew" it!
    We'll hook up soon I promise. I'll let you give Sally a few pointers, but I must warn you, she's an airhead.
    Congrats Mike!

    Banners are not important, what is, is the enjoyment gained by finding something you like, not everyone will share this, but it keeps us searching for more rare/interesting finds. Plus the giving back to the community which I know you do. People who have little interest in history will often gain an ember from your spark
