<p>[QUOTE="cncman, post: 558341, member: 17256"]There is a difference if the information is useful in itself, Sheldon's scale isn't in and of itself useful, it is like saying which is more useful C or F to tell someone how hot or cold it is outside. The utility of the system is dependant on the user. It is another thing entirely if a system is adopted (which is naturally arbitrary until wide adoption) by a community that was largely wronged by the developer of that system. There were other alternatives, just seems odd to me to pick the system of the guy that stole from other collectors.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
