Dumanyu I believe there are a great number of us here with the same thought process and I couldn't agree with you more but at the same time I/We have friends here from all points on the globe who live with everyday circumstances that we, here in the States, are not aware of nor understand. I guess my goal is for us to create our own united identity that we all can share without interference from governments, religion, race, cultures or boundaries and, in a sense, we have been very successful doing so. I/We use the words "safe haven" for world wide collectors and I hope we can continue to build that securtiy into this site.
If anyone could go on about a lack of tolerance in the world, it would be me, as my beliefs are far from mainstream but this is not the place for me to do so. There are others here who share my beliefs or are somewhat like me in many ways but I prefer to think of ALL of us as coin collecting friends. I have respected differences in people all my life as, quite honestly, the world would be a pretty boring place if we were all exactly the same! I do appreciate your opinion and do hope you understand my position.
