2001 - 2003

• I am a 72 year old gatherer of stamps. I guess I have been doing just that for a good part of my life. Now after seeing your site I would like to try my hand at collecting. And works of Art would be my thing. I don't think, I have a work of Art in the whole bunch, but as I said " I gathered them " so I will pay them the honor of looking at them. Who knows what I might find. I am working the quiz; not easy for me but fun . I am a PASIC member and glad of it. Wonderful page. Regards, Duke. 1/12/01.
• I very much enjoyed perusing your columns. The one I commented on was one of about fifteen. Terry R. 1/21/01.

• I have viewed your website today. It is wonderful and in the same time amazing. No wonder that the website and of course you have gotten so many awards.  Sier. 1/28/01.
• Congratulazioni per il vostro immenso data base!! E' uno strumento veramente utilissimo. Ciao. Lamberto D. P. 2/7/01.
• I have used your site to teach how to capture small and detailed, colorful images. I use it also in my class on Web navigation and the use of links. Using such approach I keep my students "plugged" all the time, and not bored by strictly medical subjects. Recently, I used the images of Venus by Botticelli to discuss STD's (sexually transmitted diseases = venereal - from Venus - diseases), and believe me, it was a success! Next time I discuss depression and mood disorders I will use the page on Denmark!! Keep up your great site in behalf of all stamp collectors! Joao Carlos P. 2/18/01.
