Even if 40% of the dealers drop out, this show will still be larger than virtually every regional coin show and the attendees shouldn't have any trouble finding a neat coin or two to buy. The weather forecast is sunny and in the mid to upper 70's which will be great for those escaping the harsh weather up north. I'm looking forward to seeing some show reports and some pics of the show.

I agree it will be great to see some show reports.
Since you are not going, enquiring minds want to know if you normally attend FUN yourself?

No. If my knees were in better shape I would go since I live less than a half hour away. We've been having some great weather here and I feel sorry for those dealing with ice and snow. As we say here in Florida, "You don't have to shovel sunshine."

Sorry to hear that. It would be nice to go since you live so close.
I happen to like snow a lot and just got back from Tahoe. I grew up with lots of shoveling and warming car batteries for 15 minutes before driving. As we say, "cold, bone-chilling weather, builds character!"
I hope not seeing as my stuff made it to the security room yesterday. There are people here with the same feelings I have including FUN staff...attending but sort of hoping it had been cancelled.

I realize I may be in the minority with this observation, but this appears to me to be a “rooting for shutdown” thread.
Yes, I know the response is that “we’re just sharing information!”
Early on, especially in the other thread, I also felt there was an undercurrent rooting for cancellations and some holier than thou shaming but that seems to have toned down imo.

I am quite pleased that we all managed to keep these threads open. I am perhaps guilty of poor timing with my humor but overall these posts were close to the line but it seems we mostly can behave and self correct.
I truly believe we are all trying to deal with a very different situation.
Zoins. Thank you 🙏.

Interesting how all these people are getting sick from Covid. After we have had widespread vaccinations. Hmmm..... Connect the dots folks. Having said that pretty much nobody dies from this Omicron variant. They have done a very good job of making people scared of their own shadows and then convincing them to take a "vaccine" that makes things worse. Death rates are up in 2021 over 2020 after we started vaxxing people. Hmmm.... Oh and did anyone ever hear of the flu? Or a cold? Wake up!!!
As usual, your post is completely full of misconceptions about vaccines and the viruses they protect us from. How sad.

A good friends mother just died from it on Sunday. I refrain from typing more. Be safe everyone, wish I was going. But I cancelled my flight yesterday, at least SW gave me a travel credit thru the end of the year.

I am happy to report that, per the Road Report, Coin Rarities Online has made it to Orlando and will be attending the show.
I hope they and everyone else stays safe. I'm also looking forward to their show report.

Death rates are not up. Case numbers are up which is why deaths are up.
The vaccine has limited effectiveness for preventing infection but is very effective (like the flu vaccine - heard of it?) in limiting the severity of the illness. The death rate among the unvaxxed is significantly higher than the vaccinated.
It is one thing to point out (accurately) that the vaccine is not 100% effective and will not end the pandemic on its own. It is quite another to suggest that the vaccine is making things worse.
Could you cite a reliable source.
If anyone wants info on specific Covid or vax issues just PM me. Dont want to clog up the thread.

No thanks. I'll think I'll consult actual people in the field of which I know quite a few. Or go hit my thumb with a hammer - on purpose.

I don't see it that way as I don't think a shut down will happen, like zero percent.
Do you think a shutdown is a possibility, at the proverbial 11th hour?
I’ll let you know when I attend the show tomorrow

I'm making the 1 hour drive on Thursday morning to attend. Let's hope there's a good turnout of both buyers and dealers!

We’ll find out if your hopes come true soon enough!
The show is happening!

Great!
Perhaps we'll all learn to live with Covid and the variants and life can return to some kind of normal.
I suspect, It's almost time for me to come out of my basement and see if the world is still out there?

Since he went to the show, I guess Laura doesn't consider John to be one of the "right dealers".
Member ANA, SPMC, SCNA, FUN, CONECA
Maybe he is a "left dealer"? Who knows? I do know that he makes inspiring cocktails, and that is all that really matters in the end.
I hope they and everyone else stays safe. I'm also looking forward to their show report.
