OT-Chat: Re: CAT: Too many iris?

From: Sandy Ives <rives@home.com>

Chris said :

<<the seemingly unending quest for acquisition of copious quantities.>>

and

<<the thrill of the hunt and our collective nature are powerful forces
which
drive many of us>>

and

<<starting out slower and learn what to look for in your iris, learn how
to care for them properly, learn about the different types of iris, etc
etc. Look for quality not quantity.

Getting braced for the replies to this one!>>

While normally I agree with Chris on all subjects and defer to him in
most...

Chris was bidding against Maureen and Chuck Chapman quite strongly at
the two CIS auctions last year.  And we didn't win the bidding wars.

More seriously, the dollar value of our particular purchases is high due
to the nature of our purchases.  We are playing catch-up in order to
meet the obligations we have incurred as judges.  So our purchases are
introductions.  The volume is not high and we do seem to have some
volunteers to lift much of the heavy burden posed by the extras forced
upon us.

We don't have brains at this time of year anyway.

Sandy Ives in Ottawa (Z$, I mean 4) where he no longer can see the
driveway and has to shovel lead that is posing as snow.
