Swapped a bag of marbles to get my badge, much easier than impressing Valerie with something.
Oh I'm sure that it's a knockoff but it's well made enough so that doesn't really matter. I also know that I didn't really earn it the hard way, it only cost me nearly 50 years of blood, sweat and toil :D
........don't forget that ubiquitous big dollop of luck! :D ss47
A disservice is no service at all.

I actually do still have the orange sticky back plastic identification tape on my detector from the last forum rally! ::g
