You guys were right. I am truly sorry that I started this thread and got everybody all up in arms. Two things that I would say regarding things that have been mentioned lately in this thread:

1. When Shelby asks for $ for his autograph, he turns around and gives all that money to his foundation. You guys who are complaining about this should be ashamed of yourselves. Seriously, how much money have you poured into your replicas, and your raising a stink about a $25 charitable donation??? God forbid that someday, your kid may need an organ transplant, and you might find yourself calling "the Grouchy Old Man" for some assistance.

2. If FFR (or whoever) is going to write a "tell all" book about CS, they should have the testicular fortitude to do it now, while he's still alive, rather than wait until he's dead. In my dealings with CS, he's always been honest and upfront. I'm sure he'd like the chance to give his rebuttle, and I for one would like to be able to hear what he has to say, instead of listening to others sling mud at a defenseless corpse.
