Hey there Madgardener.

YOu really need to be very very carefull in what you say or how you
reply on the GW, or old SPike will send you to Disneyland and ban you
from "his" webforum............ The GW is about a sensored forum as
there is, and just say one thing about any of th sponsers no matter
how bad they may have shafted you, and there have been bona fide cases
of some of GW sponsers shafting folks, that old Spike will send you to
cyber space.................

Yes, Spike is a hypocrite. Spike chose for years to avoid a carnivorous plant
exchange because of wildcollecting. When told someone was wildcollecting
sundews and trading them, as well as orchids, he ignored it. Yet, he continued
to claim that a carnivorous plant trading group would contribute to
wildcollecting. Now GW has a carnivorous plant trading post. I'm not saying
that's bad, just that if he was so against wildcollecting them, why not do
something about it? (the plants were actually listed as wildcollected on this
members page).

He has the name of one plant supplier blocked out, because they have competing
forums that are larger. At one time, I believe they were a gardenweb sponsor.

Crazy hypocrite *******.
I can vouch that he's missing more then a few rings from his binder.
Its a great place for plants talk, but it don't take much to get on
his bad side. Power corrupts and it affects some people more then
others.
