Jeff,

Please don't read in something I didn't say. I didn't specify you nor any BB member as being close-minded. However, I have read many posts on this BB that evinced something of a "My hatchery/Country - love it or leave it" mentality. It's usually not a simple thing. Often a person is very open-minded with one topic and closed to another, some are open to most anything, and others already have their minds made up about almost everything. Those are just the dynamics of a diverse population.

There are things I like about hatcheries and things I dislike about hatcheries. Perhaps I have multiple-personality disorder?

Hope you didn't take my post personally.

Sincerely,

Salmo g.
