PALM MOD

I actually find this kind of depressing. What does it say about humanity, when there is a need to have protocols like this on a forum shared by, supposedly, mature adults, who just want to discuss palm trees. This really shouldn't be necessary and yet it's been proven that it is, time and time again.

Group hug, anyone?

So my wife asks me what I am looking at every night and I give her this generic answer "palm stuff" that has become somewhat of a joke between us....anyway when she asked the other night and I replied with all the palm drama, she was in total shock that people were getting angry on a board dedicated to Palms.

Thanks Dean!

If that percentage is zero, you can stop worrying. You can't go any lower than zero. :)

Thanks to those of you who help make this a fun and friendly forum.

Ho Dean! Recent postings on Palmtalk almost led me to be more succinct and pungent in replying! Your cautioning works ( even for a really old bloke like me!) as I do not like being patronised by sneering comments and I have to battle with more appropriate language to the few, more rigid in their palm beliefs... and no Madagascar experience whatsoever. For example...I have been told by armchair experts that just because I have been on 7 Madagascar palm searches/expeditions that I know about Mad palms!

Well, I do know a little more than most others...that is all..and some young whipper-snappers (!) will always remain resistant to knowledge.

I am convinced however that the IPS Palmtalk site is the best there is in the world and, generally speaking, we all get along just fine and gradually palm info is dispersed.

We all await comments from the JD organised tour of Mad almost ended! Especially from Jeff Marcus who I have been working on to contribute some of his vast knowledge to Palmtalk.

Cheers! Bill.

I do some experiments and learning in my garden with palms so you don't have to experience the pain! Look at my old threads to find various observations and tips!
