Re: NFC: RE: NFC "sanctions" and our detractors...
I'm very sorry I said this as I could have made my point without it. I
was kind of hoping that those who knew what I meant would nod
their heads knowingly and keep it to themselves, so that newer
members wouldn't have to witness the carnage. I should have
known better. You're right Jay, I certainly cannot claim that any
organisation has taken a position on the NFC's sanctioned sale of
wild-caught natives.
