Rene,I am a new chipper, after I finished reading all the pro and con messages posted by your announcement to do a special board set of chips, I came away disheartened in the way members bicker over nothing. Is this all the club is about? Funny, I thought we were in it for the fun of collecting and the enjoyment of having a forum to share our passion with others.

It's like I mentioned to Dick Allard, We have all become so cynical and ready to cast stones that we forget the original purpose of why we organized in the first place.

I personally, think your idea has great merit. It is doing something positive for the benefit of the club. If you make a few dollars in the process, that is the american way period.

To all those who can only find fault, ask yourself, is this want you wanted for a club? I trust not. The world is full of three kinds of people: those who make things happen, those who watch things happen and those who have no idea of what is happening. You are to be applauded.
