I hope this doesn't develope into a polarizing issue

With all the hoopla (and rightly so) about this newest fall, I haven't seen any of the specimen for sale on the List. It seems to me that the first few grams would do very well. Lots of folks are waiting. Who will be the first to offer the specimen?
