Good to hear!! Atleast someone is having luck with dating.

In other news, I am looking seriously at coming and staying with brother there in BNA. I may be there towards the end of Jan.

Those really are still available - they are only pressed every few years, though.

I have always said I would try to be available for any FT visits. I live in a BNA burb but really like this area.

My bank's regional cash vault has seen no demand from the branches for dollar coins. Though there have been numerous large deposits made in dollar coins, also still in the mint boxes.
