David Hall has gone into hibernation

Just received a Holiday Greeting from Don Willis as President and Mark Stephenson as Vice President.
Like all Bears that hibernate in Winter

     Happy Holidays to you David and a Happy Happy New Year

    If I were Mr. Hall, I should get involved in one of my many hobbies and just cash weekly checks from PCGS.

    Actually, collecting the checks is great but the "gig" is probably not what we should expect. I cannot even begin to imagine all the headaches running a PCGS would be even surrounded by an excellent support team. Think about all the employees and their problems/families he may think about. Plus, coming up w/new ideas to keep the business growing or at least staying profitable. That's why I'd retire. More fun.

    You forget David had a bad health scare recently. I'm sure he is semi retired because of it

    I completely forgot. :(

    Is he doing OK? He certainly is one of those folks who has changed numismatics forever. There is a big difference between dropping out of sight because you wish to pursue other things.

    Weekly checks? Sounds good, plus he gets free grading doesn't he? :D

    I hope he is on the mend!

    Maybe he's on a "Holiday in Cambodia," to quote the song title.
