Its interesting to me that some people register..post a few times and then are not heard from again...sure, some see STAMPS and they want to know 'what are they worth?' I know they are just passing through...others might have a passing interest and may have other pursuits they devote more time to..mabe its like maple syrup time..it boils down to the ones who really enjoy stamp collecting and the fellowship of other stamp collectors...we is still here !

Philb you are right. People have their own lives to live (and have to make a living too). I wish I had the luxury of time on my side. And hopefully forty years from now I will be doing the same statistics. Often times I have to use company computer to take a peek at the forum and gone before the boss catches me. When I'm in dreamland you guys are busy with your 'petty quarrels' and funny chats on some threads - which is worthwhile reading. Nevertheless, this is the friendliest and informative forum I have ever joined. Cheers    gigi |

"PETTY QUARRELS".  Nope, they're just practicing their "Saturday Night Live" routine--I'm their manager.80% for me ,20% for them. Ah, heck...80% for me, 10% for them , and 10% for the forum!  Gussyboy1  |
