I hardly think it bombed ILS. You should give it more than two hours.
I was at stamp club the other night looking over a few items a member was selling (bought 3, going to return 1), using my 'bible', a 1974 Harris catalogue to check what I had (it's what I use to keep track of my collection) when a gentleman asked me why I had the book. He was astounded when I told him this was my tracking system, complete with recently taped spine.
He was astounded. Don't you have a computer? And proceeded to tell me about spread sheets etc. My response was that I work on the computer most of the day and one of the reasons I love this hobby is because it is, or can be low tech.
Having said that, I think your scans are great (how do you keep your vario pages so clean?) and the numbering is excellent too. Maybe someday I'll scan everything, but I'm enjoying tactile analogue quality of stamp collecting at this point.
Tactile with tongs, of course!
