Jay knows me personally, and because of that he correctly reads between the
lines on my last posting. I was not attempting to chastise you, Moon. Nor
did I truly care if the post was on or off topic. I need to learn to put
some "body language" into my writing.
Moon, I learned a lot from your post. It prompted me to do some research on
a fish I hadn't heard of before. I gained from that.

I think it was a good topic for discussion, and I don't think Norm was
chasticizing you-- I think he was offering an explanation why people
weren't as excited as you. People are on this list for a number of reasons,
and getting involved in something like this probably isn't one of
them. Over time I've realized this list is like a TV. You can watch
without feeling the need to get involved :-) Also, lots of people aren't
aquarists.
