Re: National Passtime


Jeff,
I agree that the popularity of gardening is overstated, but I have a couple 
of quibbles with your missive.  My natural stubbornness (must be an Irish 
thing) makes me dig in my heels and resist being swept away by sweeping 
statements like the following: 

"If there were 60 million gardeners as is touted on many fronts, then there 
would be a serious garden in every single home in America" -- Is there a 
quota?  Must gardeners come just one per household?

"Some annuals planted along the front of the foundation plantings is not a 
garden in my view." -- The person who put in those annuals would probably 
disagree with you, and would probably be insulted.
