• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

One good rule

One thing to remember in field collecting as basic as it seems ...If you move it, roll it, or look under it ......put it back the way you found it. That is somethings home or was depending on the condition you leave it in:look:

I agree on the trash thing, carpet sets well thats another story, which I am guilty of on my land in Wisconsin, I catch and view many snakes there. This was a trick the boys at Strictly and a friend Dale tought me many years ago. In July last year I was in the cane fields south of the lake looking for critters.
I for the life of me can't understand the logic behind throwing a beer can down when if you save enough of them you can get more beer..
