Ha! Ha! Ahh, c'mon, now. You know good 'n darn well that if someone else had made a similar post about cuban tree frogs you'd be all over it, like stank on ----. Ha! Ha!

Here's my disclaimer for this reply:
Don't anyone jump the gun on anything I say until you read this whole message. I'm not condemning or gettting onto anyone. I see & understand everyone's point.

After reading "sighthunter's" first post I said the very same thing to myself that "holygouda" said. I paused and pondered it for awhile.

KS is too big of a forum (too many different categories) for most of us to browse & post in. We tend to get attached to some members of a particular forum, like here, the monitor forum, and there are times that some of us may feel like sharing something other than "monitors" with other members. I say, "Let it be." It doesn't happen very often and we all could use to increase our knowledge or share each other's interest. No, "holygouda," I don't think you're wrong, after all, I said that I had the same thought.

I admire the smart thinking of "sighthunter." Bless his heart, he couldn't have started out here on a more wrong foot than he did with his radio frequency thread. (sighthunter - nothing against you or your concerns in that area, not at all, but as I'm sure you're now aware of, this forum is geared less towards those kind of aspects & more towards actual keeping)

But "sighthunter's" a persistent lil' rascal and he kept pressing for real answers. It worked. He found more common ground with Frank and zeroed in on it. Smart! Not to suck up, 'cause I honestly don't think that's what he's done, but to break the ice. Good job, "sighthunter!" I hope more people follow your lead.

Now, back to you Frank.
> > > In this post, He compared what captive varanid keepers are experiencing.

Ha! Ha! Man, I thought I had a stretch of imagination. No, "sighthunter" didn't tie his post in by comparing it to varanids, you did. And I think you did one heck of a job in doing so. You made it very relevant, informative and thought provoking. If the falcon post was made in the thread below that discussed books, it definitely could've been relevant.

Since I've always had an interest in falconry I thoroughly enjoyed the post and I thank you for saving it from possible deletion. Once again you take so little and produce so much. In other words, a lot of good has come from the falcon post & "holygouda's" post, thanks to you, Frank!

But after all's said & done, who am I to talk. Ain't I the one that made a post titled: Betcha ain't got one of these" with a turkey on my shoulder as a hillbilly parrot. (consider your source) Hahahahahaha!!!

Ya'll take care & have a good one!

Later!
HH
