[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 8432030, member: 19250"]Jeff I can appreciate your input to this situation....it may of come off as a smack down...however it was a teaching moment. I have noticed as well been made aware of on other forums that post are made here on CT that are far from fact,yet never corrected. As a member here for more than a decade I finf that very disheartening as I know the caliber of the membership here... Unfortunately the YN put a foot in mouth buy posting I knew was 100% incorrect. And guess what we all make errors and mistakes...as myself was schooled by Lord M yesterday on a Spanish coin...that was posted by a member in reference to a lamination error. As I didn't see the date and asked if the area in question was where the date had been. Rob corrected my lack of knowledge and guess what I accepted the fact I was wrong....didnt go kicking and screaming and post after post try and convince others I was right. As in fact I wasn't I completely missed that the day was in writting not in digits. Again you see I was WRONG! and admitting such does make me anything but corrected. As well schooled to now know I wont make that mistake again. If you want to run with the big dogs you must know your place in the pack...and you must want to know that making a mistake isnt the end of the world..but to accept and move on. I have learned more in life by my mistakes, than I ever learned in college. Some refer to it as the school of hard knocks....of which I will admit I was a student. And again that didn't hurt at all. As it is the truth....and in life we must accept our down falls and learn from them. Its the mature thing to do...and if one wants to be accepted by their peers one needs to accept as well learn. I appreciate your insight as well words of wisdom. As well appreciate the others input .... But again if one wishes to be accepted by their peers one must be mature to admit their mistakes ,lean,and move on...its truly not that hard. I've been doing so since someone years ago schooled me.[/QUOTE]
