Okay, okay you guys win. I'm outta here.

Since I'm being totally ignored I figure that you guys don't want to hear what I'm posting, so I'm outta here.

I enjoyed it however, but I'm tired of talking to myself.

That's a new one! Hey, we all get ignored frequently. It's just not a real chatty group. Many of Bob Bell's posts get only one or two responses. Chill.

So, how are things?

I am not sure what you want people to say. As many times as posters here have seen those pics, they have made up their minds. They don't buy them, they do buy them, or they don't care about the BtK story. It seems there is little left to talk about in regards to them. Out of 18 blogs posts showing on my screen, 8 of them are yours and 6 are about your photos. Maybe posting something new would generate some discussion.

Just sayin'.

Steve,

I enjoy seeing your tintypes because I believe some of them are likely who you believe them to be. I haven't posted much in reply because outside of those first few we talked about several years ago, I have increasingly disagreed with your new finds.

I still really enjoy this stuff but I have refrained from posting because I'm not that comfortable disagreeing with people. If you are looking for honest opinions on your collection I will start giving my take on any you care to post.

Steve, what a whiney post. But I knew you wouldn't follow through. Yep, continue throwing your pics out there and, no doubt, someone will bite.

Yeah, Dolan it was a "whiney post". I'm a little embarrassed about it now, but at the time I was a little frustrated. Okay, so I'm human, gimme a break!

So what do you think about my tintypes? How about a substantive response? Sure you are capable of insulting me, but what do you think about my collection? In my travels within this genera I have met only one person, a very influential fella, who is demonstrably rude. Is that fella ye?

But really now, I'm just trying to share my collection and as I'm sure you can tell I'm excited about it. I'd love to discover that they are not who I believe them to be. I have seen no conclusive evidence that they are bogus, all I hear are opinions; that's fine, of course. I did drop a dozen off at the Buffalo Bill Historical Center so that experts could study them. Then the fellow I alluded to above, showed up and demanded they send them back to me. Nice guy.

I'm not trying to defraud anyone. I'm not trying to peddle these pictures. I'm just excited as i can be that I've probably found an amazing collection of LCW pictures...doesn't that sound reasonable to you? I mean wouldn't you be excited if you had found them?

So, come on now; you are a bright and dedicated guy and interested in the the Kid, why not give me some constructive input? You must know more about the genera than I do...whoever you are.

Thanks, Steve
