The bottom line is that you aren't man enough to admit you haven't a clue
what you are talking about even when somebody calls your bluff, Rinkytink.
You are fooling no-one!!!! You are just wasting everyone's time with your
inane blaterings. My dead cat knows more than you. It is obvious that you
never answer anyone's questions with actual facts because you don't know any
actual facts.

You lied when you insisted that there was articles that prove that the
cultivated pineapples are of hybrid origin. There are no such articles. The
actual literature says that the cultivated pineapples are of ancient origin
grown by the pre-Columbian natives. You wasted my time with your lies.

The same appears to be true with your false claims about orchid taxonomy.
Without any proof, what you say is worthless and one should conclude you are
not worthy of any serious consideration either.

Visit a few of the large commercial orchid nurseries. They will
undoubtedly tell you their mass-produced greenhouse grown orchids don't
have
any mycorrhiza, & even if they did, it has nothing to do with taxonomy.

? Commercial orchid growers and orchid taxonomy are two separate realms.

Cereoid is rude, but he may be right. You haven't even mentioned the
author's name, let alone an example.
Iris,

I am not inclined to get into orchid politics. I don't see how a name will
benefit you if you cannot deduce it (how many leading orchid taxonomists
are
there?). Experience has shown me that whenever someone plays the thirty
years card this is a reliable sign of ignorance or ossification, so I have
adjusted my response accordingly.
