It’s like a kiss that makes your knees go all wobbly, basically letting you know you’ll drift no further. It just happens, because you need it. This one is for you, if you love wine and are a high tech type. An earlier blog post I wrote also has more Ready? Wine Collecting ChatBot, if you’re interested.

Excited business people co-working watching a desktop computer on line of an auction.

I received an email from Tom Drogue, Wine-Collector.Live — Introducing the first ChatGPT Style ChatBot for the Wine Collecting Ecosystem. “Wine-Collector.Live” threw me off, however. This is a high tech request and NOT for an auction. This image was further down in the email, and I was on my phone, not my computer, so, I just hadn’t gotten there yet. I read this to mean an auction was coming.

Wine-Collector.Live

If Only It Wasn’t A Saturday

I’ve often been contacted by representatives of wine auctions, and I thought that this was another one based on the name of Wine-Collector.Live. I quickly responded: Hi, Tom, Do you know, is there an auction house that handles US Patents? I had an uncles’ original patent for the automatic transmission that superseded other. This was the one that actually did the mechanical shifting on it’s own, Circa Oct. 11, 1938.

“This was a good question for the Philately.Live Chatbot. I came up with two:

  1. Cohasco, Inc: They provide expert authentication and appraisal services for historical documents and collectibles. They offer written reports that include expert opinions on authenticity and current value, making them a trusted resource for collectors. You can find more information on their website: Cohasco, Inc.
  2. Kurt A. Sanftleben LLC: This company specializes in unique paper Americana, including diaries, journals, and U.S. postal history. They participate in various book fairs and stamp shows, which could be a good opportunity to find historical documents. More details can be found here: Kurt A. Sanftleben LLC

“When you contact them, please tell them that you found them via Philately.Live – Tom Droege”

I did, and it’s a done deal… Meanwhile…

 

The Right Touchstone

Finding the right touchstone came from my naivete, because I misunderstood Tom’s original email, still It took me down a path I’ve wanted for a very long time, so I decided to ask a favor:

It turned out to be much more than that, as you read above. Tom had provided me with a way to enhance my investigative skills to find a house that would be interest in my historical document. He gave me access to valuable resources, which became a crucial part in my journey to become a better investigator. Tom’s passion for progress and his eagerness to share resources were key factors in helping me move forward. His passion for advancement inspired me to pursue my own path, and it’s made all the difference.
