Ironic Indeed

[Kondla, Norbert FOR:EX]

Since my feathers have recovered from the last flaming, I will risk a new
scorching by having the temerity to express the deliberately provocative
view that it would be wonderful to have a whole lot more people out and
about, observing butterflies and sharing their information with others - be
they "bumbling amateurs" or "arrogant researchers". And before you light the
torch, be advised that no, I do not think that all amateurs are bumbling and
I do not think that all researchers are arrogant. All merely Earthlings and
hopefully common interest in butterflies will help to compensate for
differing knowledge levels, values and idiosyncracies
