Interesting twist to the fable. I've heard it before. But Rusty is rarely distracted. (especially by a bitch in heat) Plus, you forgot the best part. You know...the part where a "scientist" being watched, was deemed irrelevant to the program due to slipshod scientific technique, lazy standards, inability to show work...and ultimately theft. Apparently, the dean of curriculum was wary of a certain "scientist" spouting fiction as fact, (this "scientist" was also a suspect in a string of thefts) so in the interest in keeping their institutional accreditation to the highest standards, had Rusty and a handful of other purists there to keep an eye on those that may do it harm. Come to find out...the person wasn't a scientist at all, but a temporary janitor at the facility. Tiz a shame, too. Working soooo hard trying to advance one's pet technique, and ultimately not being trusted in such a fine community as this. But sometimes a story (and it's author) just goes astray. :jointsmile:

But I digress...

If you had the proof, you'd have offered it by now. But as your story continues...you seem to make statements that get more and more difficult to accept on face value. But please, by all means continue...your story is, at the very least, quite entertaining despite the lack of facts. :thumbsup:

Dutch: Is trying to distinguish fact from fiction retarded? This is after all the advanced growing forum, right?

Sorry for the hijacking, Revanche. But ya gotta admit...this has added an extra dimension to your thread. (thanks for the rep, Dai) :thumbsup:
