Wow, sorry for offending you Tom. I do think that there is a "right and wrong" when it comes to species, and I apologize for that.

I really do know that you have helped build the trade. And no matter what asian children do.. I'm still gonna be me (do prairie kids respect their elders more than coastal kids? food for thought). It's not that I see "no value" in wisdom or age. I still don't want venomous or dangerous animals on the pet trade anymore. (yes, my opinion of them, and i know where i can shove it before anybody says it, this is not the only thing I've been known to care about and be burned.)

I feel like I've burned a bridge with you Tom, due to my opinions(though I don't actually know you) but not even a great breeder like you is going to convince me that i'm "out of my league" or that you are somehow "not my peers". I'm not the one bringing you junk science and legislation, that would be the enemies. I'm not the enemy I'm a herper with an opinion that just maybe... this time... they're right.
