Greetings, Just wanted to drop a quick note to let everyone of the fine members here that I shall be out of action here for a bit. My home computer decided that it would be a good idea to lose its' brains so therefore no uploading until it is replaced. Replacement will be delayed while I deal with other things like replacing a retaining and putting in a new floor in the dining and living rooms. So carry on dear members I shall return hopefully next month. On a side note checklist additions will hopefully continue in the meantime. Thanks, Gunny

Have fun! And don't worry, sometimes real life gets in all of our way. ;-)

I have enough doubles from the late 80s and early 90s that I can send you to make a floor six inches deep. Cleaning is easy, just peel off the top layer of dubs. Good luck.

That is not good. In December 2012 my computer decided to have the hard drive crash and proverbially burn one day after I had made, cropped and edited 25 pages of scans. I didn't think to back them up. Now I am very very careful about backing up my work. Lesson learned!

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.
