I have to agree that the endless sexually-oriented jokes have no pkace
here. Further, last year when I joined this list, I innocently asked
what such jokes had to do with hostas, and I received a barrage of nasty
notes (at my personal e-address) about people with Ph.D.s and how they
think they're too good for the rest of the list, etc. At Dan's request I
stayed on the list, but took my professional signature off my posts. I
suppose now I will receive more of the same, but if so I will
unsubscribe from the list. I am here to learn about hostas, not collect
sophomoric jokes.
