??: Non-TB postings?


I really don't know what category this should be in.  You had 
requested no use of the "ADMIN" tag so I wasn't sure.  Sorry John.

Howdy All,

I am not trying to reopen the recent discussion about AIS/TBIS.
Please 
only respond in private (t*@hotmail.com) if you want to 
discuss this unless it is something that you think the rest of the 
list would like to see.  I just wanted to raise this briefly as this 
is a chance to discuss a bit of the "TBs versus Non-TBs" problem.

I have lots of irises..... TBs, Arilbreds, Species, Louisiannas,
PCNs, 
Minis, Medians, and even (God forbid) Bulbous (Now there's a topic 
that no-one seems to like on this list) irises but I understand that
others have their own loves.  I LOVE SAers, but they are hard to get 
or expensive here in Australia.... how I'd love to have access to
Mike 
Sutton's nursery (Sigh).

However, I am usually hesitant to post messages on this list about 
other than TBs because of flames/negative comments/being ignored in 
the past?  I know I have felt that way many times in the past and 
rarely discuss anything other than TBs as they seem to be the 
"accepted" standard.  Myself, I'd like to be able to freely discuss 
other types.  It's actually nice to see that there have been a few 
postings recently on non-TB irises.  Keep em coming!!

I assume that it is OK to discuss other irises as there are subject 
categories listed in the introduction messages.  Either way I try to 
go with the general flow and keep to the mainly TB topics.  How do 
others feel about this?

Do I need to set up my own list for non-TBers? (This is a JOKE before 
anyone jumps at me.... I couldn't resist it).

This is an honest query as it is something I have often been
concerned 
about and one of the reasons that I drifted away from the list for 
much of the recent while. (I'm hoping to keep up with the list
now.... 
Thanks Jan for the archives link... Didn't realise that it was that 
easy.  Thanks also to Anner ? for the Archive searching tutorial,
it's 
invaluable and has been carefully stored for future reference.)

Cheers.
