RE: Re. Who's the Audience


Right.  I saw the first part of the thread and don't know how I'd answer
it.  Duane, you and some other people on this list have heard the story
about how I was born on a farm and didn't want to have anything to do
with the heavy, backbreaking labor.  Then I had my first home and wanted
fresh tomatos, etc., and the rest is a gardener's history.  So that
would sound like a person who wants a garden.

But then I know how much pleasure I get just from being _in_ the garden,
working away, so that makes me a person who wants to garden, right? Like
I said, we should take polls because this helps us focus a particular
piece of work but IMO, the "some things are good some things are bad"
needs a challenge.

Of course if it means that the audience want something that I can't or
don't want to provide they are very, very, very bad <grin>.

(BTW, how do you feel when you are _in_ your garden is a good question
to ask if you want to bring the room together.  I've only tried it once
or twice but on those occasions it seemed to establish a shared
experience.)

Duane Campbell started this thread, Esther, making the distinction
between 
people who wanted to have a garden and those who wanted TO garden.  The 
informal polls have been very interesting, I think.  Margaret Lauterbach
