...that the scans of the sticks were very interesting, and that I knew you would not have been offended with both the timing and placing of the post.

I once bought 12 sticks of 1/2" dice still in the foil and box. The dice read "Club 4" and nothing more. I sent them all to a dice collector in Germany in trade for some chips. He was telling me that Julius Caesar was a dice collector. He also mentioned the name of the practice for one who studies and collects dice...don't remember, though. He was the person who first reported the detection of the UV markings on chips when passing his light over some chips while inspecting his dice. It's all in the club magazine; Reginalg Kelppe. I think he has the largest dice collection known.
