See ya.
If you think you won anything, you are delusional. I'm just tired
or arguing with an idiot.

Just doing that doo, Doo that you do so well? No one said you are wrong.
'Course no expert has said that you are right. The pivotal issue here
was having a selection of opinions from which to chose. When we respond,
we either offer our experience, our hunches, or some algorithm to solve
the question (like ask a local expert).
Let's take a little walk down memory lane.

County) 883-7131, http://oregonstate.edu/dept/kbrec/

Here we go again with Billy's sending people off to the Universities
and Extension Centers. This may work for him, since his knowledge of
fruit trees is very limited. Notice Billy does this kind of
shuffling people off on fruit issues, but not on vegetable gardening
where supposedly he has more knowledge.
Sherwin
You seem to think that there is only one way to answer a question, your
way.
Good luck,
Billy, you don't seem to have any suggestions. You probably wouldn't
know a fruit tree from a fire plug.
Sherwin
And what has that to do with solving Lilah's problem? Do you see a
problem with seeking local help, doo?

Billygoat,
If I think I have an answer to a problem, I don't send people running
off to seek further help.
The original poster was very clear in describing the symptoms and even
sent a very clear picture of the malady. There was no question in my
mind that the problem is apple scab.
Why bother having a forum. Just build in a standard reply to all
poster problems to take it elsewhere to their local experts. If
nobody in this group had an inkling to an identification, sure it
might require a hands on examination, but that is not the case here.
[So you had a inkling, end of discussion?]
. . .
As for spraying, what do you propose to fix this problem, if it is
indeed apple scab. Maybe some organic fairy dust?
Why the attitude when in the next line you mention copper sulfate? But
the real question is, what do you spray, if you do, when you still
haven't conclusively identified the problem? Why spend money, until you
know what you are doing?
You have made this whole discussion a referendum on your authority, not
on providing Lilah with means for solving the problem that she is having
with her apples.
If you act like a fool Doo. People will treat you as one.
If indeed the problem is apple scab, and the method used to combat it is
copper sulfate, it will not reflect well on you, and how you chose to
limit her choices. Even you have admitted, that you await the decision
of the authorities on the matter. That's what happens when you are 3,000
mi. away.
