Re: seed collecting

Many folks will say that taking anything from property not your own 
(even public property) is theft, and I suppose I can't argue that it 
isn't.  Of course, so is that pencil or paperclip you brought home 
from the office and any one of a hundred different things I could 
name.  Do any of you ever log into the Internet for non-business 
purposes from work - even just to read your e-mail.  Oops! Theft of 
service!

I don't want to start an argument about situational ethics, but such 
collecting can and does occur.  In my own garden, I probably wouldn't 
keep any prized plant (particularly with valuable seed) on my front 
steps (our paperboy has a bad aim).  Anything anyone can reach from 
the sidewalk I figure is fair game (tho I'd appreciate it they'd ask 
first).  For any lapses in my own judgment, I beg forgiveness.  Mea 
culpa.
