David:

Thanks for your reply. It's never too late to express this sort of opinion, and this is a good recommendation. Next time we do a survey, I will be more methodical about coming up with a list of questions, and yours is a good one. I believe that collectors feel better when they meet others who have the "disease"!!

Yesterday, I was chatting with a friend in my office. He collects pins from the Olympics -- especially the 1996 Olympics held in Atlanta -- and was happy to see OnTheDash and the image showing my collection. He said that my operating the website and ownig these watches made him feel better about flying to Prague -- twice -- to find the rare pin from Madagascar!!

: Jeff, I'm late on my comment's but maybe they could be considered
: for the next survey. A question to consider is the value or cost
: of the collection, my interest is knowing what the average
: collector is willing to spend to maintain or even increase the
: size of the collection. I think the information would be helpful
: as a guild for collectors as myself if my passion is getting out
: of hand or just typical.
