Re: It will be a long long winter

I too, am a bit dismayed at this impending fued.  Let's stay focused on the
fun and comradery of this "sport".  If we have a bone to pick with someone,
lets do it in private.  As for Al Eaton, he was very helpful to me a couple
of years ago when I was just getting into more serious growing and I asked
him for some tips.  Do we want to discourage people like Al from
participating?  I think not.  Anyway, that's my 2 cents worth.
