Because in the same post, you write: >you bird-loving-narrow-minded-insufferable idiots >intolerant of other people's opinions >you mud-slinging birders >the general intolerance towards facts some of you display truely >lends credence to the term "bird-brain". I think that this is really a case of giving someone enough rope, they will hang themselves. If it weren't so sad, it would be funny. To be fair, your point about getting active in organizations that help the environment is a good one. You are not, however, the only one that posts to this group that loves both cats and birds. I do, as do others I have seen post. Mind you, making jokes about birds like the one you made about mine is NOT the way to establish yourself as a bird lover. Still waiting. -Mary
