Hey.  Thanx for being a fan.  The biggest thing is that everybody thinks 
that I bash all decks.  The thing is, I bash about, maybe, 5% of all decks.  
Hey I'm a Big Fan of yours from your writeing on the pojo And would like to
say I think your Thrash Fest 99' Was REALLY funny!
   Although I think you could have been a tad bit nicer?? Oh well, the 
person
who constructed that deck deserved to be told that it Stunk but it was
porobibly some 7 Year old who loves poke'mon and thought he could make a
good deck ("I have never lost with this deck!" LOL) And now that he reads
the responce he will become a monk and never look at another
TCG again.
    But you still have a right to your oppinion and the person (Professor
Oak) who wrote the Chipmunk needs to return to his tree article is just
jelous of your poke'mon talent.
   But I am A begining poke'mon player and was wondering if you had any
poke'mon TCG tips (Ihave been into collecting pok'mon cards FOREVER but I
just started getting intrested in the game) If you dont anser me I undrstand
you are busy and dont have time to answer all your e-mails.
                                                          !Thanks for
reading!

I get so many, that I don't get to answer them all, and so some people think 
that I am snobish and don't answer all my mail.  To tell the truth, I am 
starting to.  I read them, but some just don't follow the simple tips that 
get repeated over and over.  I just get sick of it now and then when they 
pass the HUGE article before entering the garage and expect us to nicely fix 
the deck. Oh, and some of the repsonses.  Some think that, after sending US 
the deck and WE fix it, that our help is a load of BS and they are better 
than us.  I admit that some af the mechanics are not really at home in 
between the ears, but it just gets annoying.
   If you want tips, just keep reading the articles in the garages.  Many of 
the things we say to fix a deck can be used immediately in making the deck 
in the first place. There are also some great articles in the strategy 
section that will definately help also.  I would say the Killer Deck 
section, but those are just lists of cards, and some really are bad.

Thanx again.
