Seriously....the person that posts with great pride a collection of pot holders turns around and calls other people's stuff 'garage sale items'?

Someone posting their red wagon with petro stickers is far less offensive than the veteran members continually harping on the new collectors/members around here.

I don't know the numbers, Jim would, but my guess is page hits on this site are stronger now than they were 10 years ago and that's what pays the bills here. Advertisers get more exposure, vendors get more sales, and members get a chance to add to their collection with purchases here. The for sale section here is hot as ever.

I've noticed as I age that I sometimes dislike change..well guess what...it's part of life. You either adapt to it with age or become a crusty complainer continually whining about a past that really was not as pure and innocent as you choose to remember it.
