I still believe that, and with these post that I make and others, confirms.....that there are questions, that we will answer between us, EVEN IF THEY ARE DIFFERENT in opinions, that's why we are here......YOU KNOW THAT....even if the answers at present are not in line with your own, or mine or others ideas....truthfully they are not far from your own...
and it will take some time, as the light does shine..

Zee, you are bright and articulate, two traits that I admire. You are not afraid to look at things differently. Those traits differentiate you almost from the get go. They can be a great strength, but you learn early on you don't think like everyone else.
It is what it is.
Ask yourself, what is the allure of thinking about archaic mundane things? My answer would be at a minimum, at least you are thinking and that is half the battle.

There are those who you will not shake ZEE, others who will read along...and wonder......what this is all about..And those who will stand firm. and those who will comment on the side for the for the VAM in particular issues...Yet there are many here who are here for many reasons who still contribute to the truth in there own way....WE have not gone backwards in this last year if you think about it. we have gained....

The truth be told, vammers are probably the last line of defense against counterfeits. Those who collect Morgan and Peace dollars are starting to understand the market is under siege.

I forgot, as this thread has introduced so many issues of vamming, perhaps, that is why I am thinking just now, after all the things that have been discussed.......Where is this hobby headed? I think its moving forward, because of the issues we all have been discussing, rather than have some " RedBook"
tell us what it is........WE bring it forward, by asking, the things some don't want asked. WE BRING KNOWLEDGE. from our questions....and combine our questions and personal knowledge to know what it is we are seeking...Its not definitive..as there are always opinions...But we are not in the dark, expecting some other thing to blindly tell us where the way is...WE HAVE A MIND...between us, we have the intelligence of too many "trades" and I so call "professionals", those with 4 or more years of college...
With my 3 IQ, I guess I have a right to question.......

You are just so funny Gene. I know many graduates who surprise me on their ability to tie their own shoelaces. Some of the most intelligent folks walking the earth are uneducated.

Experience too is a factor to be reckoned with.....there is no education that compares. I think that most folks, be it through experience, education, or just sheer intelligence, can make contributions based merely on their unique life experiences.....you, as well as others here, have proven that to me.
