I also don't want to see this BB be used for frivolous chatter, but I have to say Dennis that I STRONGLY support your comments and very much appreciate you speaking out for the many people who come to this board (lurkers and participants) and politely overlook the garbage (forgive my making that judgement, but that is all I can think of to call it - because it is nothing but "garbage" to me). My perception is that this board is exactly what you say it is - a friendly forum of traders and information suppliers and gatherers working on behalf of the whole community and not just their own private little grievances and micro-wars.

I apologize for putting any more energy or attention into these matters but I also think it is time to address how the vast majority feel but quietly and politely keep it to themselves.

I wish you ALL well and a good day Silver Striking.
