Bill:
Who are you to question the morals of Marve
and others, you should be ashamed, by the way when did Marve or others pay
$25,000 for seeds?
I see no reason that Mr. Dill need's your
protection. Mr. Dill originated the seeds we all grow, but he is not a king
unless
Queen Elizabeth has abdicated the throne of England
and passed it to Mr. Dill.
Bill, you are out of line!

Howard Dill is doing the best he can under the situation you and others
without morals presented to him. How in the world do you expect him to respond
to you, he is the king, no one but you will question that. You &
I'm being general in this. Why when you pay $25,000 Us for seed that you
get the Gaul to commend him for selling the best he has for $8 dollars. You
should be ashamed of your self.

If you really want a Kuhn 712, try
writing him. He is very generous with his seeds and sent me some when I
wrote him and sent a SASE. I don't have his address but it is in one of
the newsletters. It may get more difficult to get good seeds or maybe
easier in the future if you want to pay. Howard Dill appears to be
buying seeds from big pumpkins and then selling them on his web site. I
have no problem with this but as I see the prize money growing and these
"privately grown" seeds being sold on the internet I am getting
concerned that it is all becoming too commercial. Where will we be in
ten years? Also I wonder if there are enough growers out there willing
to buy these seeds such that it will really be a profitable venture for
those selling. Not my problem. My problem is how to grow a bigger
pumpkin.
