Re: on guard

I don't doubt that it has happened and will again but the likely hood is
less than any day you leave home. The percentage of thieves in the hosta
society I believe is less than the general population so why use this forum
to make people uneasy. Yes, someone has stolen a plant and will again but
are we going to watch every visitor in our garden. 

I can tell you of one incident in my garden that would curl your toes or I
could tell you of hundreds of very pleasant moments of shared pleasure. 

Your response completely missed my point.
