RE: EMS Pins on E-Bay

Ron -

I appreciate the explanation.  In that context, I have an easier time
understanding your objection to the sale.  And, yes, I am familiar with
Ebay's policies but even with your explanation I disagree that attempting to
ban the sales is a productive use of anyone's time.

In a way, I find it re-assuring that amidst the terror and tragedy of the
past few months, we can have discussions about illegal trafficking in flight
program pins.  Maybe we are getting back to "business as usual" faster than
I expected...

regards!
