The problem I see in 'list' selling would be when someone's question gets
answered with a sales pitch. Nothing gets resolved that way, and it too
tempting to do for a business trying to sell a product. So I see that some
curbing necessary. But explaining someone's new product out of the blue,
without being asked, I'm not so sure thats a bad idea. Is it?

Just my opinion on the matter. I have only but a few... grin-again.

  Wait jeff Aren't you advertizing panty hose? The reason I brought up the
subject of reducing the dependence on filters was to question all the
attention given mesh and microns in filters in excessive detail. Then to
bounce an idea around to find what others thought of a different way, a
differnt system. If I know this CT crowd they will all have input that will
benefit the crowd or have a way to do this that is better than my present
concept by spring. How can we enjoy an interesting LIST if we dan't talk
about what we do or want to do or have done as well as quoting some ultra
dry text table.? I would sure welcome open discussions of products,
methods, nutrient components, brewing ideas, application ideas, how
applications are being made by anyoone doing big or small applications,
business ventures and how they are managed and how they are working. The
science of ACT includes the ways to make it useful, economically possible,
.for farmers, gardeners, lawn care guys & gals, the enire picture makes it
useful - and interesting.

  Membership has drifted down sharply. Is that because there is some
mention, possibly some promotion, of related products? Or because there
is limited interest in what the list is limiting itself to discuss?

  Just looking for good ways to go.. Panty hose is certainly an interesting
subject, Jeff, so I'm not really bitching about your affair with those.!

Bob! You promised!

    Obviously, however, if you are using drip systems and the like you do
need to filter out particles. Why don't you simply spray the plants and soil
instead of relying on the drip systems?
    Anyhow, I am learning way too much about mesh and microns. I say a
stretched out size Q panty hose fits a five gallon bucket and works as a
great filter without taking out too much of the good stuff!

    Cheers,
