Dear friends ... one of the chief reasons for liking this group is that the members do not tire while they repeat sharing knowledge again and again for the benefit of new members. Members have varied enthusiasms - thus have found that queries of different nature have solutions readily shared. Importantly errors and mistakes (from scientific view) are always at a check. Each one is expert as well as humble in their own way. My salutes.
Personally, am just a plain lover of nature, the fact is: I am gaining more than what I am sharing !!! Regards.
