Jon,
I really appreciate your posts and your support of the GGA! You always make good
points- no-one's time is ever wasted reading your posts!
David,
Please don't judge our entire membership based on the comments of one member. If
you would like to see us at out best, please, everyone come out to Daytona this
August and attend our talks and dinners. I never had a better time at any
reptile function. I always go home with the best cb gex, some useful husbandry
tips and sore ribs from laughing so much with my GGA buddies!
