During a conversation about the weather in work, I happened to mention
that
when it rains, one of my cats has a habit of bringing frogs in, which
then
take refuge in their water dish. Someone remarked that they didn't like
frogs because her Grandfather would stick his fork through them if he
found
them in his greenhouse. I said what a shame, think of all the good they
could do [thinking of them eating unwanted bugs]. The general opinion
was
that you *don't* want frogs in your greenhouse, but no one knew why.


So, why not?

One can only conclude that your grandad was a nasty ignorant man.

One can only conclude that you can't read adequately to access this
newsgroup successfully.
Read my post again, decode it correctly, then you can apologize for that
comment.


I remarked that the grandfather was a nasty ignorant man. I see no
reason to change this view. It would be my view about anyone that
deliberately stuck a fork in a frog or any other creature.


I concur, largely. I make an exception for slugs.
