Bonedigger Pillar of the Community United States 1267 Posts	Posted 08/19/2008 5:26 pm Looks like tomorrow might be the day. I've gotta head out to town and take the wife to her LASIK Eye Surgery Appt. Something we've been saving up for a LONG time and she's pretty excited. Take Care Ben (5 to go. ) Report this Post to the Staff

BTW, Jen's Lasik surgery went great last evening and she is already reading and going around w/o glasses, etc. An amazing process for sure. Take Care Ben Report this Post to the Staff
mycrob Pillar of the Community United States 2602 Posts	Posted 08/20/2008 09:20 am I had laser eye surgery in 2002 and it was the best decision ever. I went from 20/100 vision to 20/15 in one eye and 20/20 in the other. Report this Post to the Staff

Bonedigger Pillar of the Community United States 1267 Posts	Posted 08/20/2008 11:59 am Hello all -- Jennifer here, I'm Ben's wife; that "Old-Lady" stuff will be addressed later on. While all the comments were pleasant and interesting the importance of moving young children to become interested in history using numismatics is an untapped wealth of opportunity. Coins put a face on the great world leaders and help illustrate their historic deeds. When a child learns the entire world benefits. As we all know history is written on a coin and if we do not learn from the past we will be doomed to repeat the same failures in the future. Topher,- you are the winner of the contest for your thought about history and children is very relevant. Cheers JenBin~ Report this Post to the Staff
Topher Pillar of the Community Canada 965 Posts	Posted 08/20/2008 1:24 pm Many thanks Jen. My kids help me roll search, so that's where my thoughts come from. Now I've got something new to share with them, although I might have to pick up a couple more next time we go to Chinatown if they take a real liking to them! LOL PM Sent. Thanks again for the contest Ben. Report this Post to the Staff

Topher Pillar of the Community Canada 965 Posts	Posted 09/03/2008 2:46 pm Ben (and Jen), The coin arrived safe and sound yesterday, and it'll be a good opportunity to learn a fake Morgan from a real one. (I just have to get a real one now.) This is far better than the fakes I've seen here in Chinatown, so it's not as obvious to me. Thanks again for the contest, and the opportunity to own a fake coin (and know it!) Report this Post to the Staff
