My feeling on hybridizing...

It makes me sick to my stomach, but that’s only my visceral reaction. I’m not sure you can give creating hybrids and creating generics or mis-matching localities equal billing in this way, Glenn. I think when someone hybridizes, they call into question a reluctance to draw the line in a much more exponential sense, meaning if you like to cross species you may be that much more likely to cross localities. At least, that is my perception, the perception of a non-hybridizer, lol. I don’t know whether that perception is shared by the majority of non-hybridizers; I could be marching to the beat of my own drummer. However, I completely agree that it shouldn’t automatically discredit someone as long as there aren’t other “issues” present.
