I guess it is too late now, but I might as well ask if I should introduce
myself to the group? I searched, but could not find any FAQ for this group.
As I previously stated, I planned to lurk, but... well, it didn't go too

Welcome -

We have tried several times to put together a FAQ. But we always
get to the point that if we do, we have to post the new grower
questions. Then it gets so long no one wants to host and repost
it. So we bumble along with "standard courtesy" and "no binaries
posted" as our only rules. We are loosely connected - 90% of us
post - to a binary news group, alt.binaries.pictures.orchids .



And some of us would like to be connected to ABPO but for some
reason can't get access through their university news servers... And
no, I don't see why I should have to pay for another news server.
Ooops, that slipped into a rant. I have a few basics on orchids on my
website (see .sig), which I started writing as a sort of FAQ years ago.
Many many years ago. It hasn't been updated since.

Born mostly Scandinavian (just what is the etymology of that word,
anyway??) by phenotype, mutt by genotype. I think it helps for
surviving Michigan. I hear that I have distant cousins in Sweden
somewhere. Someday I'll run into them on the internet... *grin*

Rob's Rules: http://www.msu.edu/~halgren
1) There is always room for one more orchid
2) There is always room for two more orchids
2a. See rule 1
3) When one has insufficient credit to purchase
more orchids, obtain more credit
