I sent the paragraph below directly to "Ol Coot", but since Mike Todd bravely ventured an "atta boy" posting on the listserve, I thought I'd risk one too! "Dear Jeff, PLEEAAASE, DON'T stop sending your long postings about your experiences in the field. I, as one not as species savvy as most of you, enjoy your descriptions of the birds behavior, and the other details, probably more than I care about the actual birds you sighted. Is that heresy?!"
