This, my dear Icones, shows how little you know of me and how biased you are about me. As for Kew, I have no dislike for the place. I have never said that the weight of the decision of Kew botanists is not as important as those of others. Again, you put words in my mouth. As for Phil Cribb, I have no dislike for the man. I only have dislike for his actions. As for Seidenfaden, he was a great man. For Kränzlin, well, Kränzlin was the student of Reichenbach fil. and we know that the latter was not such a great botanist as may be deduced from his "reputation". I is indeed frustrating and tiring to discuss this with someone who simply does not want to understand plain English. It correlates with you fear of putting your name to your messages.
