Well put, Robert. Normally I'd snip this for bandwidth, but it is all
substance and no fluff.
We have to stop blaming objects and circumstances for situations where we
must assume responsibility. After all, can you blame a car for a drunk
driving "accident"?? It just sits there parked, until a drunk driver gets
in and wreaks havoc. Maybe we should ban cars. Or better yet, sue the
manufacturers for maliciously failing to drunk-proof their product.
Well, enough of that. To get off my soapbox and on topic, the garden is
beginning to take form. A couple early Cayennes and Jalapenos from K-Mart,
a Scotch Bonnet which I overwintered and about 18 plants/14 varieties from
the Chile Woman coming next week.
Peace,
Frank
