Yolk, Yolk, Yolk, I seem to spend much of my time putting out fires that you and Rainman seem to be so fond of setting lately.
For myself, I think the animosity towards green sunfish is probably rooted in jealousy, perhaps mixed with a sense of my own inadequacy. You know, one of those Clark Kent/Lex Luther type deals.
Back when I first started posting, I was amenable to reconsideration of my prejudices against Lepomis cyanellus, came to appreciate some of the qualities that I had previously overlooked, and was even carried away to the point that I proposed a subgroup dedicated to the enjoyment and advancement of the species, modeled after BISA, and created in a spirit of warmth and camaraderie with like minded individuals on the West Coast:
"Reckless Enthusiasts of Cyanellus Trying to Utilize Murderous Sunfish"
However, this effort generated no interest or support, and was dwarfed by the adulation that met the creation of the GSA. I think that's when the bitterness began, although it could have been just after that when the 5" greenie bit my left nipple while I was swimming in the pond.
Rainman?
