Merry Christmas ChuckChuck, Grassfarmer Mustard et al

I can't lower myself to thanking a philosophy that's grounded in NFU talk that says it has all the answers on everything, and toes the line that it doesn't negotiate, period.

Meanwhile there are countless thousands of farmers who are quietly limiting their carbon footprints, but the message still continues, "is that the best you got, just look at the perfect system I've developed, I'm better than carbon neutral, I'm saving Bangladesh from it's future.

Well, merry middle finger to that congratulations attitude.

Give me a break , these are the same poeple who run for office and win , these are the same poeple who are running the country now , these are the same poeple who love the cwb and ran it for decades , these are the same poeple who cut and paste false info on how good the cwb , and it's being proven the cwb was a joke , I don't hang around poeple like this , I try and surround myself with common sense poeple , u can cut and paste anything u want to go on ur side , time to go chase the ace and have a good discussion .

Crochety, old, selfish, railroading, inconsiderate, lucky, (the list goes on and on) are all in the minds of the beholder..but not used often in my dictionary. The list is nearly endless and when it is specifically mention not using that type of language; it makes one wonder if it isn't propaganda to try to convince the public that someone deserves to be put on the "disenchanted and ------list" I currently forget the other "----" word but perhaps it may come to me. Perhaps as Mom used to say " Comments you make tell as much about the speaker as the message they are attempting to convey to others.
And be damned that "-----" word just popped up.

The word is "marginalized"....and that information is kept by at least one contractor who was hired by local politicians.

Sometimes it is frustrating when valid questions and comments are met with only more unproven reprints, presently only on the drawing board or in the imaginations of people and groups with their own real agendas.

Every other statement completely ignored.

Thanks very much Albertafarmer5. Your support is appreciated. It is always great to have someone like you who can present their point of view without being rude or insulting.

I live and farm in a community where many of my neighbors and friends would have a range of views similar to what is often posted on Agriville. It is difficult to have these more in depth types of discussions in your own community. You certainly can't get away with being an in person pain in the ass by using insulting confrontational language. I don't get to coffee row very often. Agriville offers an outlet for people to freely express their points of views.

I try to be respectful and just stick to the issue. I don't really expect to change the minds of many people on Agriville. But good information and facts presented in a respectful way can have influence.

There are lots of spectators on Agriville. It would be good to hear from more of them.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Everyone!

Time for a time out children?

[grassfarmer]

A little bit different LWebber - I was posting in reply to a poster (whose name I forget, and you conveniently left out - was it an alias of yours perhaps? you certainly kept that quote from months ago close at hand) who had only ever come on Agriville twice by that point, both times calling for me to stop posting on Agriville hence I pointed out the ignore button.

Contrast that to your starting a post about ChuckChuck, someone I can't recall you ever discussing anything with, which by its tone was rude and disrespectful. What happened to the preaching about being kinder to fellow posters following the tragic events on Agriville earlier this year?

[sumdumguy]

you don't speak for me Albertafarmer.

[biglentil]

Yes aren't we so lucky to have a fractured voice when our very industry is at stake. The challenges in ag are growing thanks for nothin grass, chuck and mustard. Why don't u go undermine some other industry forum instead of one so noble as the Canadian family farm.

[SASKFARMER3]

Ah Alberta5 we need grass and mustard to show what is wrong in Canada with the current governments in Canada, Ontario Alberta and BC.

Yes green is eventually going to develope but why kill gas and oil and coal before it's even close to perfection. Why not go balls to the wall oil gas etc and put tax money into developing new energies.

I guess you couldn't figure out how to work the "ignore" button if you don't want to read my posts? Now you are up to two comments EVER on Agriville both complaining about my contribution. Surely that's a waste of bandwidth?

LOL...you're funny
