Well said Ed...I have been trying to sum up my feelings re this whole matter and you have just encapsulated it....I feel very sad and hurt for all the lovely people in the BCG whose other work, here in UK, with tortoises is being belittled by this b....y campaign...it smacks yet again of people telling the whole world about their own gripe and not giving us the intelligence to work it out for ourselves and reach our own conclusions and decisions. To be honest there is enough of this on TV at the moment with the debates between the 2 main parties...
