   Never said specifically "Mr. Kaye", just referred to ONE of the thefts!   
      
   "Just before last month's Calgary Philatelic Society's spring show, father   
   and son dealers Angus and Robert Graham parked their vehicle in a downtown   
   hotel gated parking lot." On the morning of the show, the dealers discovered   
   that overnight thieves had smashed their way into the truck and stolen   
   $50,000 worth of Canadian and British stamps.

   Thanks for making it 'personal', Kennie! Do try the world without your   
   blinders ... eh?
