Luckasaurus:
First of all, Welcome to our Forum Group. Wow! 18 yrs old, and taking a liking to our hobby, with a positive outlook.
We need more like you. Otherwise these machines won't survive through another generation. Then again, if any of us
believes in reincarnation, they may still be here when we come back!
Yes, I agree, about 98% of the younger generation of today, has absolutely No interest in the History and preservation
of things from 'the-good-ole-days'. The only new invention that I ever had an interest in, was the computer, and that
was not immediately. It does make things much easier, and quicker. Sorta makes me wonder how I got along without it.
Everything today, revolves around total electronics. You can't go ANYWHERE now, without seeing the majority, with
their damn face buried in their iPhone, texting. My grand-kids are on them 24/7. When they are on their iPads, with a
headset, they don't even put them down long enough to visit the bathroom. Sad! Now I suppose, if our generation of
today, does start collecting things, it will be Antique RARE iPhones, iPads, and the like!
I do have to ask, being as you looked into our Forum: Do you have an interest in collecting coin-op? Hopefully you have
already started, and if you have read through many of our threads, you should know by now, that you will receive a
good amount of help, should any problems arise. Just don't be too hasty in forking over your hard-earned cash for a
Repro, or a Fake. They are out there by the droves, just waiting for a Newbie, to get snookered.
Good luck, Bill
