Ray,
You've been around long enough to see that squash played an important and invaluable role in the development of AGs. Why do you frown upon them? Is it because there's one shoved up your... oops, I won't say it, that wouldn't be "nice." Until you stop with the bad attitude towards squash squash growers will probably not be nice to you.
Tom,


Tom,

You must have something up yours because I don't have any attitude for squash!  In fact, in 1983 I petitioned The Guinness Book of Records to include a "SQUASH" class to make it more appropriate for US & Canadian growers to have some recognition for their efforts!  Guinness did so!  England had only one class for "pumpkin" and the Book the same.  I pushed very hard to institute squash classes at all WPC Events - what I'm saying is that Topsfield Fair would not accept the squash class entries even though they signed a legal license agreement with the WPC allowing the squash class!  Take it where you want but get a little perspective before you come after me like that!
