Bob
Damn, I must be slipping. I have an address.....
As for Mitch, I have tons of respect for his collectible knowledge and I'm pretty sure he will tell you that just because he hasn't seen it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Next time you talk with him, ask him about Mr. Cole.
The problem with new people coming on board and exalting their experience is there is no actual living breathing truth to that experience. Especially when most of it is coming from written text or online information. This is not to say that there isn't experience. Hell, I questioned Mr. Cole's experience until I really met him as I am more than sure he did of me. You see Bob, it is an online community, but many of us here know each other off the boards. Some have hosted other members at the homes, shared drinks and meals, as well cigars, in person. I have seen the vast collections that many members of the online community have in the possession. I have a very good friend who was honored into MRN's home to view his collection. So, while it is an honor to have more knowledge here, it's something that is not always acknowledged when there is not a personal relationship between the scholars ( I use that term very loosley, LOL! )
