Well, you know this already, Greg - a lot of people prefer the pre-EB refrigerator magnets, but I think I've made my position clear here and on other boards.

The modern day Music Man Refrigerator magnets are every bit as good as the vintage magnets.

Of course, there's always the question of....mojo.
