Hi Morris:
Whoa! You're freakin' me out! I didn't expect anyone in the chat
room to agree with me about slabs.
Re my definition of hard core vs. dabbler colonial collectors:
HARD CORE: Have definate collecting goals in mind, even if they are
dispirate (and even contridictory!). Regularly add to their library,
or on-line store of knowledge.
DABBLER: Will add a piece here or there if they see it, it strikes
their fancy, and they have the discretionary funds. May or may not
be a "club joiner".
People can certainly drift from one catagory to the other over time...
I'm sure others can refine these definitions.
Rgds,
Dave W.
