<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gunsmoke, post: 180517, member: 6896&quot;]<b>My Thread</b></p><p><br /></p><p>I ran a thread on this subject on Dec. 18, in case anybody wants to go back and look at it. I picked the Texas design as best because of its elegant simplicity. (I could almost believe RANCH HAND plagiarized my comments on it in the current thread, but I&#039;ll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he&#039;s&nbsp; not guilty.) I fault myself for the judgments I made in the previous thread because I didn&#039;t have all the designs in front of me when I wrote it. I had seen them all, but didn&#039;t plan to keep them all, so I had let many of them go and naturally didn&#039;t remember them vividly when I wrote the piece of 12/18. Because of that, I shouldn&#039;t have made the judgments I did in the previous thread. </p><p><br /></p><p>Since then I have again seen New York, with its Manhattan map and magnificent Statue of Liberty, and New Jersey, with its well-done Washington Crossing the Delaware, and a few others I should have mentioned favorably in my previous thread. I still stand by Texas as the best, but it has several close competitors. And I still name Wisconsin as the worst. I&#039;m sorry, Wisconsin partisans, but that silly cow makes a laughing stock (no pun intended) of the whole state.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
