Lynn, would you consider going over again or linking this thread to what you wrote last year about the best way to prepare semps for trading and having them survive the shipping process. I tried to search for it but my first lazy attempt did not find it, so I thought maybe it would benefit more people than just me. On the other hand, it did remind me about mcguyver's buddha project. I am curious to know how that has been going. Hopefully he is here somewhere too.....
