@mvc:  Drink your champagne. The news organizations have no legal role in deciding who has won.  If you want some quality information on the numbers go read FiveThirtyEight.com. Biden won.

It's clear that the majority of American voters would rather a past-its-prime turnip than Trump at this point.

Best comment on WaPo this morning: "I'm fine with no concession speech. The sooner I never have to hear his voice again the better."

Thanks Mark! 😎 Wouldn't be bad, though I don't wish Biden anything bad. That would be rude.

Sorry to butt in, however when threads like this were posted in the recent past, we would have had Haikus from SDR and Aunt Mark  ( I think @spanky posted a few as well) ; not to forget the inevitable "Randy "parodies, to entertain us while we sit waiting ,with baited breath, for the final election results.Champagne ; any excuse. 🍾 🥂 ..... To quote the one and only Aunt Mark: "Drinks are on me"

CNN just called it for Biden, for what that's worth. MSNBC too

Now it's time to martial every resource into the Senate runoff in GA.

@mvc Champagne? Have one for me. I never touch the stuff except for a occasional tiny sip in toast to the married couple or jolly good fellow.

Hi @lexi, you seem to be a fan of Aunt Mark.
I can still remember how Aunt Mark did polarise the forum several years ago, and he did not only polarise but also divide the forum, many members thought him funny, but there were also a lot of people who thought his narcissistic behavior pretty stupid and ridicolous. He got on my nerves too, I don't like narcissistic posers, and if I remember well, some girls started to attack his poser-behavior, and to be honest, I was side with them. I left the forum at that time, because Aunt Mark dominated the forum so strongly with his posing, it was unbearable, I can't stand guys like that for long.
Well, it's a long time ago.

Hi everyone 

Theses tables are 'replica' made by Dutch manufacturer 'De Ster' around 1955.

De Ster had make copy's of a lot of Italian  furniture like Cesare Lacca's trolleys & coffee-tables.

This is why it's easier to find these tables in the Netherlands than in Italy... 

Regards, Nicolas

@nico77  Thanks for the info - this certainly makes sense based on the other table with the same marks being mostly in the Netherlands.  Doing some searches using the name "De Ster" and "De Ster Meubelfabriek Geldermalsen"  and "Salontafel" yields very few results,  and I wasn't able to find any that showed tags or marks.  I take it they did not produce many tables in their history.
