Actually bill,  there is no reason to apologize.  I, for one, think
you have one of the more sensible misc.rural type viewpoints here, and
your posts are usually very informative, and a joy to read.

I agree 100% with you in your stated views.  I live in the same
small-town rural midwest that I was born in.  In my lifetime I've seen
it go from a small town to a small city wannabe.  It sickens me.
That's one of the reasons I bought my property and am building my log
cabin (among other things) on it.  Many of the city-oriented
viewpoints you get emotional about inspire the same reaction of
disgust in me, and I don't think their attitudes should be tolerated
in a rural setting.

All I was asking was that the discussion be carried on in one of
the sci newsgroups as it had evolved well past the point of being
highly relevant to misc.rural.  By all means, challenge the weenies who
would invade our lifestyles.


Ob. Rural.

After 5 weeks of not going out to the ranch,  I finally went out last
weekend.  The weeds were over my head.  I had to borrow a small brush
hog just to find my cabin.  Yes it was gas powered,  and anyone who
has a problem with that can come out and eat all the weeds they want.
