<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 2916868, member: 112&quot;]Kurt, I myself have commented more times than I can count that CT only represents a tiny percentage of the hobby. But I strongly disagree that it is an indicator of nothing worth counting. Ya see Kurt, CT may be a tiny piece, but it is a tiny piece of a huge whole. And that whole, it is extremely significant and indicative regarding the health of the health of the hobby. CT is just one website, but it is a part of thousands of websites and all of them combined far exceed everything that has gone before. Via the internet factors of a hundred, maybe even a thousand, times more people can experience and participate in the hobby than ever could before. And the fact they do participate - well, that just pretty much drowns out what you are claiming.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ll not disagree. But because of CT, and all the other websites, they will !</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Again, I&#039;ll not disagree. But the fact that you are choosing to ignore is that the internet is absolutely not the sole source of bad information. Numismatic books, and a great many books, along with articles that were published in paper form for more years than anyone here has been alive are also filled with bad information. </p><p><br /></p><p>And do you know how you find out which information in books and articles is good and which is bad ? By reading thousands of other books and articles, and doing the primary research necessary to determine which is which. And you can do that with paper and the internet.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ever heard the saying there&#039;s more than one way to skin a cat Kurt ? Well, there&#039;s more than one way to learn too. And there&#039;s more than one way to participate in the hobby we all care so much about <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
