He said "freeware" and you went on and on about databases and
spreadsheets. There's not anything wrong with that, but you are being a
hypocrite to then bash Frogleg for suggesting a paper journal (which
qualifies as "hardware" in my book. Nowhere did he say "software"; that
was implied.)

No, I didn't. I talked about two gardening-specific pieces
of software.

'Freeware' MEANS 'free software'.

I explained that I also had looked for freeware for this
purpose and been unable to find any, and therefore
recommended two inexpensive ($20 and $30) programs.

If you ask for something and I say I've looked for it also,
and been unable to find any, I think that's a useful answer.
If you think that's an inappropriate answer, well, we'll
have to agree to differ.

You may have the last word if you wish - we're not getting
anywhere here, so I'll end my participation in this thread
with this posting.
