Welcome Bob!!!
	I can't believe you actually got on-line.  Congratulations!  Please work 
on Sam Pickens to do the same.  Hech, even Bill Robertson is on-line.
	About Bob, Galoots should know that when it comes to a "discussion", his 
ability to concisely and logically present fact or opinion should mean 
beware if you intend to challenge him too strongly!
	Maybe some on this list remember the several times when Bob would present 
a statistical and qualitative analysis of the major tool auctions such as 
Cranes, Bittners, CRAFTS and PATINA.  I can still see that look on Bud's 
face when I asked (grinning) what he thought of Bob's latest auction analysis.
	And as a collector, one who is a proud preserver (Ok, maybe an 
accumulator?) of tool antiquities, I welcome someone who envies things not 
L-N or requiring construction.
	Welcome Bob!
