Re: SPEC: Intergeneric hybrids

Greetings,

I've gotten a couple of questions here about the conversation we have been 
having regarding wide crosses and traces of evidence in the literature of 
improbable ones.

I want to make it clear that my position is not an advocacy, and I am not 
endorsing any reports in any literature hereto mentioned. I have not made any 
attempt to compare reports in the BIS book, Garden Irises, or the Bulletin 
articles or any other resource in detail. I personally would not be surprised 
to discover inconsistencies and errors since that is what often happens with 
data moving through time and multiple hands. It might be a worthy project for 
someone with an abiding interest in the question to do such an analysis to 
see what if any insights hindsight may offer. The problems always associated 
with proving the negative should be anticipated. 

What I do endorse an open-minded approach to all such information, wherever 
it is found, and especially in sources which may be presumed to be informed 
and sincere, until it is clearly shown to be unreliable.
