ostensibly published by the Houston Orchid Society.

I just want to thank Andy publicly for the
very "Andy like" private e-mail he sent me
in response to my post in OGD Vol 6 Issue 340.
The flattering names he calls me make me
swell with pride.
So nice to receive a private thank you from Andy, who appreciates
every bit of advice he gets, and then

When you cease to be a predictable mouthpiece for Eric people might be
willing to listen to you. Do you think we should all sit back and let the
