Jeff,



I'm actually quite surprised by this post YOU ask for TRUE information in the post, and yet you bring up IN public PRINT "Someone said 500" and you comment on that return.



In my opinion, that is very dangerous, and I hear it come out of you quite a bit. I think it is much more responsible to go TO the source, and find out before you post what you HEAR!!! I have heard you do it quite a bit with the Motley project, yet I would bet 1000 bucks you have never even Spoken to Ron St. Pierre. There is WAY too much HEARSAY!!!!!!!!



If you want the TRUTH about the Motley, it would be very easy to send me an email, and I could give you all the FACTS as I know them. There is a Lot more to the STORY then the 2 Motleys sitting in Strickly reptiles. You should HEAR the truth of the story. It is quite fascinating. To be honest, I had to find out a LOT more then Ron was willing to tell me, and that is not a slam on Ron. Ron gave up a LOT more then 500 bucks. I owe Ron more then you know.



I'll give you one little piece of Motley history, and if you want more, I'm just an email away. Ron St. Pierre traded 35 bearded dragons for that Motley. Back in the date he did that trade, Beardeds were quite expensive. So, 500 is WAY WAY off.



I bring up this post because you called me out, and I do appreciate it. I agree with you. Facts are VERY important. However, facts should be from the source. Not, I HEARD this or that. I see you do that way too often, and I would expect more from someone like you. I don't say this as an attack although it may sound that way. I do respect you, and what you have done. I could give you many examples, but I don't want to turn this into mud slinging. I'm guilty of the same thing.



I would go to the SOURCE and not have others TELL you what they THINK they know. Just me personally. I think that we could all do better on this, and that would really help the new guys.



I say this with respect, and nothing more. I enjoy your posts, and they are very good to read. I say this not to be discouraging in your posting, but I just ask for a little more responsibilty.



Jeremy Stone
