That is the whole purpose of our discussion. We deal with the complicated issues so that it simple for the entrant. If we don't discuss "what ifs" right now, then all hell breaks loose when somebody submits an entry that uses some creativity. Unrelated to Roberts comments specifically: Maybe I'm perceiving things wrong, but it sure seems to me like everybody wants it "their way or no way" and it seems like a few people are really just waiting for a comment to be the straw that broke the camel's back, so they can quit. I say, if you don't want to participate in this, get off the list. I'm not saying you shouldn't lurk, or that you can't offer your opinion even though you disagree with everything, but if that's the case, I really hope you offer an alternative to those points. Maybe I'm just misunderstanding the tone of some posts, though. :-) Dave Engle Escondido (San Diego) California Non AGA Member ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ------------------ To unsubscribe from this list, e-mail majordomo@aquatic-gardeners.org with "unsubscribe aga-contest" in the body of the message.
