Your accusations is false. If someone would like to talk about an
antique tool or a hand-made tool, neither of which could possibly be
linked to a vendor site, I would more than welcome such a post. My aim
is to give people a forum to learn about garden tools outside of this
discussion board for the simple reason that trolls like you lurk on
boards like this to interfere with discussions and information exchange
that could benefit the whole gardening community.


This is not a board. This is a newsgroup.

For your information, David is not a troll. David is a valued poster
who has posted to this newsgroup for years and he has a wealth of
knowledge and experience as a gardener. You are a newcomer whose name I
do not recognise as posting here more than a couple of times.

If I was asked to say which of you or David is the troll, you would be
the candidate I'd nominate every time.
I stand corrected. This is a newsgroup, not a board. There is a serious difference between those two terms and you've helped me to understand where I've gone astray. Thank you so very much, Fran Farmer.
