Sal; Yours is a fair question ... unlike the post that began this thread (from the same poster who claimed that he heard from dealers that the Building Fund was a scam ... but refused to identify those he heard it from) and does not even include his email address.

In case any of our 2800 club members missed it ... this form below (or a similar one) was included in the 4th quarter, 2004 issue of the club magazine. A similar form will be inserted into the 4th quarter issue of this years magazine for consideration of next years HOF inductees. Hint; The Committee is not looking for names of individuals who gave someone a break on chip purchases or because he/she is a "nice guy".

(DEADLINE: January 31, 2004)
