[QUOTE="mikenoodle, post: 858352, member: 307"]I am and have for years. You know how I feel, Doug. :D It has never changed. Funny thing is that I think you agree in principle, but not in practice. I think that grade should be grade and value should be subjective. I have never figured out a way to say it that is satisfactory to you, though, Doug. I think we should just use technical grading for grading and leave the subjective parts for the people that buy and sell them.
