Chris,
First, I do know what you are referring to, but let's not loose sight of the question. When someone asks if a snake is venomous on this forum, they are asking if a bite from the snake will cause you real direct harm. I don't care if a brown water snake bites me, but I do care if a water moccasin bites me.
Your point is well taken, but it is never a good answer to a general question on a forum like this one. Someone will start to think that a bite from any water snakes can cause a person real harm. As we all know, that is just not the case. Too many ignorant people go around killing snakes because they think they are poisonous. Let us not feed into the public's fear of snakes.
