Gosh Joan,.. I'm not running for Governor, lol.
You forgot to add that I had a DUI in the mid 80's and I tried marijuana in the 70's. Man,.. this smacks of a character smear campain, ha ha.
Need I say more about a personal agenda folks?
Good day Joan
>>Hi Rob –

>>I appreciate that you forcefully stated your opinion on these issues to Brian, or Damon, or whoever he is. I really don’t have a clue about him or his past or why he feels he must post anonymously, although he obviously desires to be considered as someone with great competence. But he sure sounds paranoid! All I know on this forum is what he has told us: He claims to have been keeping herps forever, but his oldest snakes are around 3 years old. He says his last collection was wiped out (well, actually, he got rid of the last of it) because he didn’t practice good quarantine (these are all his words, not mine) but he makes continual dark insinuations about practices at unnamed “big breeders.”

>>He would probably be happy at the number of times I have held my tongue and moved on when he has made some really wacky remarks. In his posts, he seems not to comprehend the difference between bacteria and viruses, for example. And his recent request that people post to a public message board a list of their entire private collections of Burmese pythons, including details such as the origin of every one, was a real hoot since he certainly wasn’t leading by example on that one!

>>I usually try to make my point as succinctly as I can and not allow myself to get drawn into a back and forth that isn’t amenable to reason. But sometimes like yesterday I let myself get suckered in when the name calling begins. Since this guy seems to have to post on every single conversation with page-long screeds, it is a real shame that he is unable to deal unhysterically with any opinions that diverge from his own. I couldn’t quite decide yesterday if his whining was on the level, or he was just being childish for some peculiar effect (You were mean to me! Apologize right now!). This post may not stay up long, because he’ll probably go crying to a moderator, but I just got tired of his self-righteous drivel.
