>>>Gene sent me a friendly note this AM acknowledging that he mis read the original issue.

It would have probably just killed him to have to admit in a public thread that he was simply wrong.

>>>Perlowski clarified the issue well from both sides.

From both sides? I see, suddenly the waters have parted and the issue is resolved because Mr P speaketh.

Thanks for helping to confirm the board view that I'm just some ignorant slob who raises turtles for a living.

>>>If you agree with the issues, and still argue against them, doesn't that make you a pot stirrer?

I said that I agree "generally" with the issues. For instance, I am in general agreement against slabbing but I think the slab free pledge is stupid.

On this board, it's an all or nothing deal. Otherwise, you find yourself treated as I am.
