Folks

Perhaps I'm oversensitive tonight but already I've been talked down to about
respiratory systems, and told that there is no point discussing recipes
because it's all been done for me. Er, what's this board for then?

Can we remember: -

"This site serves as a location for discussion and dissemination of
information about compost teas, compost tea making and related activities."

Sleep well

STUART:
It's so gracious of you, offering to take the rap for oversensitivity. No,
Stuart, if you go back and read the early posts in the archives as I have
been doing lately, you will see that there was an evident good feeling and
sense of excitement about the adventure of making and using compost tea, and
a level of kindness to one another that has been replaced by -- well,
something less pleasant -- on many more occasions than in the past. NOT
your imagination.

I do find it disheartening to have to resort to stoicism in order to get
through the other stuff that gets put into the post so I can find and value
the substance of a reply, and then brush away the bad feeling it generates
and get over it and move on to the next -- hopefully less attitudinal --
post.

I'm so sorry I wasn't participating back then.
