<p>[QUOTE="jtlee321, post: 2960439, member: 73983"]I'm so glad my thread got hijacked. At least it was in the name of education. I did learn something from my own thread. The next time I make a video, if I make one, I will add at the beginning, "Warning, what you are about to see is performed by a trained professional. If you are unsure of what you are doing, do not try this at home". And also <b>PLEASE PLEASE</b> watch out for that McDonalds Coffee, <b>IT'S HOT!!!</b> They should have a warning on the cup or something.....</p><p><br /></p><p>I thank those of you for defending me. This thread is not a how to handle coins thread. Most everyone here know's that, but some feel that there are enough New Collectors that apparently know who I am and follow, tweet and retweet, like and # everything I do, that it will cause chaos in the collecting world. The videos I made are unlisted and only linked to this post. I will have to remember what Ben Parker told Peter, "With great power comes great responsibility". I will correct my way's and carry forward as if I am some heavily followed YouTube star with millions of views.</p><p><br /></p><p>And for the record. I know very well how important it is to follow training. I worked in the bomb dump when I served in the Air Force. I worked with explosives everyday. We would discover boxes of crystalized dynamite, work with flare that burns so hot it would literally suck the air out of an entire room if you didn't ground yourself properly. I know about safety protocols, lord knows I heard of some scary stories when I was getting trained.</p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=91351]@352sdeer[/USER], I understand your point and appreciate what you were trying to do. But perhaps in the future, try to get your point across with a little more tact. I too absolutely hate the sight of finger prints on coins. I can spot them with great ease and turn everyone of them I come across down. There is nothing worse than a beautiful Morgan Dollar with spectacular color and then you spot that old finger print in the field coming across Liberty's face. The reason I don't use gloves is I have small hands. I would drop more coins by wearing gloves than I would ever put a finger print on it by not wearing gloves. I do thank you for your concern however, please carry on.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
