Dear Lion,

I've already responded to this message off list, and hoped that it would
stay there, but now I see you've dragged it back on Sanet. I am puzzled as
to why
you keep doing that to persons who are posting to you privately.

Over the past couple of weeks I have agreed with you more often than not,
and have politely pointed out some of your assumptions are dead wrong in my
opinion, and I have given you clear examples. Other of your assumptions have
been good ones, at least as far as I can tell from the meager details you
provide, and I have acknowledged these as well.

You have already admitted that you have never tried this micro-farming idea,
yet you refuse to believe anything from anybody else who has a clear
understanding, based on decades of farming experience, of just how unlikely
your plan is to succeed.

You have boasted, and I'm paraphrasing directly from you, "annual income
of $60,000 from 87,000 square feet of land, by one rugged individual farm
worker, without help, working a 40-hour week, with surprisingly little
maintenance".

In my estimation that's a pretty arrogant boast, especially coming from
someone who has never done it. You appear even unwilling to try it,
and that puzzles me, too.

Up until now my responses to you have been civil. You asked
for feedback, criticism or corrections, and I gave you my opinions. Now,
because you don't like my answers, you cry foul play and want to sue me. How
childish. Your infantile behavior persuades me even further that your ideas
are, in the words of another reader, "poop".

My advice to you at this point is what my old Auntie Myrtle used to say, "If
you can't take the heat stay out of the kitchen", to which I also add
another little ditty I've heard recently, "You've got to be strong if you're
going to be stupid".

With all due respect,

Andy Lee
