I'm sure there is. As a matter of fact, I'm looking at it right now.
Do you suppose someone could "google" PEPITO Melon?

There must be something cultural about gardenbanter that makes them take on
this degree of helplessness. It seems an attitude unrelated to level of
gardening knowledge. I find it quite odd.

Have you done any web searching on your own behalf or are you counting on us
doing it all for you? You are likely to get more help if you show that you
have at least tried to find out yourself.

Banter is exactly why this forum is here I thought David...

I have done a lot of web searching and in fact found this to be the nicest spot to ask

However, it seems like all forums there always seems to be those who dont enjoy the banter and swapping of ideas liberally.

"BANTER" is described on google as a

"Supple term used to describe activities or chat that is playful, intelligent and original. Banter is something you either posses or lack, there is no middle ground. It is also something inherently English, stemming as it does from traditional hi-jinks and tomfoolery of British yesteryear"

Generally, I enjoy sharing ideas as this develops knowledge.

I feel a little "corrected" by your remark

Should I feel like this?

I think not

Not entirely. Perhaps you don't realise that gardenbanter links to the
usenet newsgroup rec.gardens.edible. Most of the posts you see are not sent
via gardenbanter. The newsgroup is international and about growing edibles.
Along the way you will get some banter but that is not its primary purpose.

There is nothing at all wrong with banter and swapping ideas liberally.


"BANTER" is described on google as a

"Supple term used to describe activities or chat that is playful,
intelligent and original. Banter is something you either posses or
lack, there is no middle ground. It is also something inherently
English, stemming as it does from traditional hi-jinks and tomfoolery

So do most of us.

My point was that you came across as expecting others to do basic internet
searching that you could readily do yourself. Interchange between people is
good if the subject is complex or you don't know how to frame the question.
For a very simple clear question like "Is there such a name as PEPITO
Melon?" a search engine is quicker and more effective than a human.
