Mud, I enjoyed that immensely, hugely, like a big fat piece of cake, no like a gourmet meal! Thank you.

On the patience thread, after your post back to me, I was considering leaving the board, well, not posting on it. It’s something I’ve considered many times and I’m too stubborn to do it. Interesting though? Bet you didn’t think that I would think that…or did you? Just thoughts, not really questions. A different view point?

Can I keep my big trap shut? Oooo maybe I’ll write this and delete.........

No!!! I refuse to feel fear! Your thread might benefit with another POV in my hugely inflated opinion. No pastrami in the fridge either, darn. Got some salt beef though? Not hungry right now.

perhaps for them the benefits of conflict are real

Yup, definitely. At least I’ve stopped swearing at other posters now. Where would I be now with all that rage and hurt still bottled up? Dead I reckon. Heart attack probably. Real benefit to me.

From one who might snap at a mudpuppy, but would not physically injure one or any other animal, happy to be,

I'll have to print out your post Mudpuppy, I'll read it tonight.

Has anyone else heard of this, I found it so fascinating, not just the dinosaur fish, but the story behind its rediscovery

Very good, mudpuppy.

( This morning I thought it was something about a fishing trip... I cannot 'skim' stuff on the screen like on paper...
then whilst I was reading the print-off a little voice from downstairs said 'mummy I need a hug' so we've been talking for hours )

I looked up mudpuppies, too, hearing about them in an aquatic rather than cyber context; I'd forgotten there really is such a fish. The info says they are often mistaken for dangerous and killed by anglers, they are a Species of Special Concern in Indiana and Ohio, and in decline everywhere.

Look forward to the next installment!
