With the wife back at school I've buried myself in pseudo-academic
pursuits (in addition to the academic ones). I've been carefully reviewing
old CPNs and other CP literature to see what has been said about various
chemicals (pesticides and fertilizers) and how they've affected CPs.
Well, I was looking through an absolutely ancient and mouldy CPN when
who's name did I see? A certain Rob Allen. Rob, I guess it didn't click
with me you were growing CPs for so long. I think then, you and Don B are
the senior members on this list.
