Where to begin... not sure of the exact date but it was somewhere in late 2000 or early 2001 when I started here at Joe's. Though my posting has slowed in recent years I have been a weekly (if not daily) reader ever since.

I do remember when HWC started up and seemed like a bit like a joke. I did join there after a while but honestly don't even remember my login anymore...it's been years since I posted on their forum. To me a collector site should be run BY collectors FOR collectors. This place has never lost its "small community" charm even as it as grown immensely. I love that the bickering and pettiness is kept to a minimum here and I cannot even begin to describe the generosity of many of the members here.

Speaking of great collectors, what ever happened to Agent Air? I know he ran Airland at HWC but have not heard from him in a very long time.
