I learned today that Catherine Fox and wrote two of the high scorers in the contest. I thank all of the members of the List who would encourage two new collectors like us.
I echo the sentiments that Jim Strope should be acknowledged for unselfishly giving of his time to newcomers; it's an quality as appreciated as his generosity in giving Catherine a rare NWA 482. That's like giving the "penny black" stamp to a budding philatelist. It doesn't get much better. I haven't written before to the list, because I try to listen a lot more than I speak, but I wanted to acknowledge the sense of community and fair-play that Jim Strope and others have demonstrated. I have begun to learn so much about such strange and wonderful things. My sense of wonder is re-kindled through these posts and conversations. So much to learn, so many friends to meet, so much to do! My thanks to each and everyone who makes the effort to contribute those civil and thoughtful insights to this List and who give of their time to make this an oasis of intelligent discourse. There is not a lot of that available; on or off the web. My warmest regards to each of you who cared to write, cast a vote or contribute in a number of ways to this community.
