I have to agree with Chris--there is absolutely no pleasing some of you.  First-I have never asked any administrator of this site-past or present-to delete any post on this forum.  That is left to their judgement, and I have never interfered.  As for the mailing permit-we have applied for a new one, my original comments stand.  The Red Wing Mn postmaster said they were aurthorized as a point of entry, under a permit in our name originated from Mulberry Grove.  Mulberry Grove postmaster says she was there several years ago when we had a permit there, but it expired over 5 years ago.  Nokomis postmaster still says there is no permit there.  That doesn&#039;t mean there isn&#039;t one-it just means they say it is not there.  AS for doing business with the Smithsonian?  We never have, our only agreement was with the I&amp;amp;I club, I don&#039;t know of anyone there making this comment, as this is the first I have heard of it.  As for everyone speculating about what is/has happened--don&#039;t make up fiction on the web site-go direct to the source, and maybe your questions will get answers.  Terry.
