Stop all your BS, If you think I am wrong, Prove it. Because all your doing is calling names like a child.



Again, maybe you should go back to school. Because in school you learn from those before you. Yet in everyday life, you don't cite your kindergarden teacher for teaching you.



There were two key learning lessons in my life, both came from school, one was in high school. A group of biology teachers and a college mill and cabinet teacher in school. The rest was great, but those were two areas that formed me and my thinking.



The teachers at the time were not controlled and restricted, as they are now. The bio teachers, taught me facts and how to dream, to dream about what could be. The mill and cabinet teacher taught me to not be restricted by current tools/life.



He did that by giving us a project, planning, blueprints, etc. Then you turn your project in. Hmmmmmm mine was a full working recurve bow. Then the teacher returned our papers and instructed us to make the tools, to build our projects. Sir, that was the best lesson ever. And that teacher was just a woodshop teacher of no name. He deserves all my credit for being inventive.



The bio teacher would give us a lesson in biology, then turn the lites out and tell us to think and to dream and to wonder. I guess in a sense, I was hypnotized, to be like I am. As I would dream of animals and what they are, what they really are. I learned, the animals are the book. Not any paper book.



So when it comes to captivity, keeping and breeding was never an accomplishment to me. IT was a relief. As these animals have been doing what those things for thousands of years, without me, or you, or any of us. In a sense, WE STOP THEM. All I ever tried to do was, NOT STOP THEM. Then to promote their abilities. end part 1
