Consideration is a measure of maturity. When I signed up I saw a lot of very immature messages. It reminded me of a manure slinger, used in Switzerland by dairy farmers in the spring. Little bits of manure were flung into the air creating a stink but no substance. Perhaps they will fertilize the ground they fall upon and soon the meadows will be ablaze with flowers....other than the blooming idiots who felt inclined to reveal their juvenile nature. Thank you Keith in Tampa for your thoughtful welcome. It looks like you and your management team have a good group going...now if we can just get the farmers to wash down their gum boots before they walk through the door. :-) Live free and fear not. Dik
