I sent the guy that discovered plutos moon 2 2008 A & G cards to autograph. Got them back in the mail today, and found out he autographed the case that the cards were in. Not the card or sleeve, but the case. I wrote him a note that said please sign the card! I guess some scientist, are not as smart as they appear!

    It's possible that he doesn't collect cards, and didn't have much experience with TTM autos. Nobody knows everything about everything.

    Maybe he has better things to do with his time than read notes from autograph collectors. Sounds pretty smart to me.

    I had Dwight Evans do that. He signed a hard plastic sleeve, not the card. Hard to get upset with him though. He's a class act.

    agreed. and generally scientists are very compartmentalized in their respective science.

    I have my start as a research biologist...but I collect cards and believe in God...I'm a walking cliche.

    C'mon... give him a break. It's not like he is a rocket scientist after all!
