Don,
Thank you--deep breath--I will try to make contact with him.
There are so many facets to any collecting hobby that there is no way that everyone will ever agree to the same things. Back in the late '50s when I started into reptile collecting I had a familly to support so I tried to make my hobbies self supporting as not to dig into the budget. I am sure that many others did the same thing.
Later, when the captive breeding got popular the whole snake collecting hobby went through a big change as some looked at it as a way to make some big bucks. More power to them. Myself, I still prefer the OLD hobby way. To each his own, no use in fighting about it.

P.S.
Adam Sweetman - where are you?
