I can appreciate that & I've read through the stuff you 2 often put up, but he didn't come on declaring his input to be some kind of new revelation or history, just an interesting aside that concerned the cotton industry & no challenge to the in depth knowledge & information supplied often & freely by yourself or Atarah.

I'd of though encouragement would've been better because surely the more that's handed on can only be better for the knowledge & understanding of generations to come.
