HAY CRAIG - good to hear from you ,its been awhile . Im glad that I brought something out that caught someone's att. It isd really something when you get into studying about coins and paper currency, I said earlier last year that what we have now as far as money is , that it would be turning to plastic, well a country in europe has turned thers into plastic , I just found out recently, so I guess ours will be next, they are already trying to get one world wide monetary system started, and of corse they seem like they are going to make america follow europeways. That's all right because it won't be long and our money we have now will really go up in value.

ANY ONE THAT IS ALLERGIC TO FISH OR SEAFOOD SHOULD STAY AWAY FROM THE DYE> Craig I am doing better though because now they know what heart meds. They can give me safly , THANK THE GOOD LORD.
