I have a good friend who uses that word. What an odd coincidence.


Coincidence? Does your buddy use this word to describe himself, (or others)?

SO WHY, is forensic's necessary?is it because of the original concepts, and attributions have evolved into die states? the concept of die marriages turned to die progressions? or that perhaps the gained knowledge over time, has evolved into more than the beginning concepts and understandings and attributions? its not the changing of the past, that we share, but the light that shines before us..to move forward in understanding and the changes/knowledge that moves us forward...

I'm not really so sure that forensics is necessary Gene..... It may be interesting to some of us, but "necessary"? I sorta get the impression that to most folks, it is not.

Forensics is necessary because some of us are unfulfilled by the "what."

I could take every Morgan dollar minted, set them up on a conveyor belt running under a properly programmed high-res camera, and eventually have all of the "what" while I was elsewhere, eating bacon and drinking beer. That's a mechanical thing, not difficult for a person with the right mental orientation.

Frankly, attribution bores me. Anyone with enough information can do it. I want to know why it happened that way; that seems to me to be the direction in which "fresh" thinking has to go, and I'd rather break a new trail than follow an old one.

The how and why of this is important Different die states of pitting? How did that occur?

For every answer it seems new questions arise.

That is what I like about this particular forum....... I am not overwhelmingly outnumbered by those who feel that importance is measured in terms of value and profitability.

I haven't the disposable income to generate much "value and profitability." I gotta get my jollies in a different fashion.

Although I *can* afford bacon and beer; my previous idea is gaining traction in my mind.

Serious question here....Is bacon and beer a widely accepted combination of food and drink? Kinda like wine and bread or wine and cheese, or wine and crackers, or wine and CCF, or wine and potato chips, or wine and pizza, or wine and spaghetti, or wine and bacon, or wine and (well, you get the idea)?

Bacon is the Wonder Food. It goes with anything. There is no gustatory problem which bacon will not fix.

I wish I could find the article, but a few years ago a young boy noticed on the 1921-D D2 reverse that Eagles lower right wing feather looked a lot like eagle's beak. I suspect this was George Morgan's inside joke on everyone.
