C-C,

LOL.. Thank you. That's very kind. Unfortunately, my writing days seem to be minimized by my turn as a talking head.

The next set of laurels need to go to Steve Haskin and Andy Beyer and posthumously to Evan Shipman and Joe Palmer.

If you remember him coining the term in 1930, that would be a tremendous feat. Can you remember where you were when the term was coined?

Crist et al absolutely deserve the accolades, but no Beyer on the initial HOF? That would be like leaving Willie Mays out of the baseball Hall first ballot IMO. I don't get it all.
