Yep, You are absolutely Correct! A few guys like you did creep in. A No-Code Wonder with a license for 7 1/2 years and he wants you to think he is an old-timer because he has a dead persons call. I can't see what he said is so bad. I am not a mental health professional, but, just sayin'. Hey, how is that MINI-TR-4 doing? I will bet you had a bidding war on that one. I just looked and I see you still have your old JUNK National NCX-3 (I mean "Baby Drake") for sale. You must think people are really stupid.
