Now Andy, I appreciate the compliment, but you just pointed yourself out as one of the problems by disdaining the ignorance of the discussion level but admitting you don't go there and try to fix it!
I'll openly admit that I have a hard time avoiding the "Jane, you ignorant slut" comments on forums sometimes (the AOS forum is not the worst), but with a bit of self control it really IS possible, so I'd guess it might work for you too, if you'd try.

Ray, your answers are very helpful and well expressed but you are in a very small minority. Sharon belongs to the Mary Lou in Miami school of thinking. You know: I am stupid and know nothing about orchids but I'll post anyway! I so rarely go to the AOS Forum anymore but the quality of the answers is at an all time low. Perhaps it reflects the general ignorance level of the orchid community whereas at least some of the other forums have a much higher percentage of interested or passionate enthusiasts. And if Sharon gets her feathers ruffled and stops contributing.....well at least no information could hardly be as bad as misinformation. Hey, this discussion has come to life!
