Thanks for the warning, but I can handle it. There have been exactly 3 people who have tried to raise my ire in the last 3 years. An average of 1 per year and the best retaliation is just in continued success. That seems to squelch them quite adequately. I have a laissez faire attitude and as I don't interfere with others expression of free enterprise I don't expect them to interfere with mine. for subscribing.. you have one day to get the old rate marketgems.com.
