You are correct- we used to refer to those clowns as the "Ten percenters" and now, thanks to the Ying and Yang of the Internet- we have such websites as our PGCA, and then, doing a one-eighty, spammers and hackers. Possibly the price we pay for progress. Back in the "Day" (no pun intended, Col.) when you could buy any Parker your pocketbook could cover, it was letters, maybe phone calls- and as some never thought that "Golden Age" would ever tarnish- well, we all know how that ended up- Cherish the Parkers and other fine guns we have lads, there are uninformed geeks that would like to see them shredded into steel scrap and be reborn as cars made in China--I hope I don't live to see that, but we never know--
