We have apparently been infested with losers from rec.ponds.

And lets guess, you are the upstanding drunken mullet of the aquaria
NG's?

Yes, sometimes I take a drink but it does not interfere with the care
I take of my fish or the enthusiasm I feel for aquaria.

Nor ours, for our ponds.

The difference is that due to drinking that goes on here, I have to
limit the size of my indoor aquariums, because accidents can happen
while drinking. I just noticed that a friend had left a burning
cigarette in the seat of a 150 year old Windsor chair, which burnt my
ass--not literally, for alas, I was not in the chair at the time. But
if I had seen it while the drunken scoundrel was here a fight could
possibly have ensued. He is banned from coming over for a month as a
result of that mishap.

Outdoors at your pond, you are free to drink to your heart's delight
without worry of falling 55 gallon aquariums hitting the floor.

Wow, I've been reading rec.ponds for about 4-5 years, had no idea it
was so bad. I honestly don't remember any flames, except for a
obnoxious guy a couple years back that was always going overboard with
the backwoods hardnose routine. Went by "Foxeye" or something like
that.

I also read about 12 other groups, I recognise you from a couple, by
far rec.ponds is the most docile and friendly.

I'm not real impressed with nedra all the time either, but you seem to
be really bent out of shape about it. Suggest you take a deep breath
and shake it off. Stress can kill! Ignore those who bug you.
Killfilters are your friend.

OTOH, didn't know re.aquaria existed, will probably read it for a
while now, thanks for the crosspost... how's that for a newsgroup
oddity? :-)

IMHO taking a fish out of water to put it out of misery would be akin to
tossing you into the pond and holding you under to end your suffering.

BV.


Would you rather that it languish for days in the pond until it dies? Oh,
and
last time I looked, fish were not people. Are you suggesting that they
are? Do
you eat fish? If so, does that make your a murderer?

Actually I hate seafood. Ick. So I am not a good person to ask this. I am
not saying the fish should be left to suffer. If the OP needs to end it's
suffering, I believe there are better ways, then suffocating the fish, as I
believe if you ended a human's life there are better ways then drowning
them.

I am also not suggesting fish are human, but that does not change the fact
that I would not knowably impose suffering any living thing where I can
avoid it.
