Thanks Down, I really appreciate it, my whole family had to wipe their eyes for weeks after initially re-meeting him, he's a good guy and Montana is a great guy as well, two of the best friends that anyone could ever have.

I read your articles with great interest, Alan. Good job. I don't think I'm at the level I need to be to try experimenting with with cross pollinating etc. But I'm starting to research the subject to help me understand the process and increase my understanding. Thanks for point me down that road. (I think)

Thanks for the compliments and glad I can be of help. I may not have the scientific lexicon to say what I need to say in a real professional way but I do my best and I think that common gardeners can get the jist of what I'm saying one way or the other.

Anyhow, keep your eyes peeled this week, I'm working on a lot of new articles and research papers for my future speaking engagements and for my customers and hopefully I'll get a chance to get them online here shortly.
