This is why I made sure my wife had seen my *ENTIRE* collection

often think it bothers me more than it does her.
I'll bet it does. My (very nearly-) spouse would be heartbroken if
she saw anything she knew to be important to me go away, even if my own
priorities had changed. In my case, that's not likely to ever happen (I
understand you're pursuing different passions these days), but if it
were, she'd take me to have my head examined, because she knows just how
much I love my stuff now.
She knows that's a part of who I am, and who I've always been.

You have to consider the wife factor as well. A friend
of mine gave
me an Apple //+ a while back, and she threatened to insert it in him
rectally. I have loads of my future 8-bit computer museum hidden in
my loft for after the divorce... (;
Sounds like that divorce is long overdue.
Why do some people think it's ok to try to quash the interests and
passions of their spouses? An even bigger mystery is why said spouses
would ever marry someone like that.
