LkDoc - I'm sure you are right about what most readers here want in an answer. Posts do not have to be "long drawn out and full of technical terms" which are often features of my answers and often not the best approach for most.
Bob Lusk is a fine example of short and simple common language posts. One can use his style as an excellent example or mentor. He is not a frequent contributor when fish season keeps him on the road. But you can search his past posts for examples of what I am refering to. He does an excellent job in my opinion and I enjoy reading his style.
I think what KD an I were referring to was a style that 'we felt' maybe was too casual when dealing with herbicides which should always be considered serious stuff esp from a professional with training. Your style must have rubbbed our 'chemical feathers' the wrong way. However non-herbicide answers can be very casual and 'local'. I'm positive KD takes his herbicide stuff very very serious and I tend to agree with him. I think people in general take plant control & herbicide application way too casually and they need to be constantly reminded of the serious nature and consequences of hebicides and improper application. I think this is the point we were trying to make to you. I had several heated posts/discussions with KD before, I know where he is coming from. I had to learn not to take things here personal; they are not ment that way and intent and inflection are often very hard to convey with written words. As we said earlier no offense and don't take it personal. Everyone here is entitled to their opinion and as you know you are allowed to respond in most any manner at this forum. I guess that is what the rating system is all about, but not sure how effective it is.
