Not at all; read the posts. I can tell you that noone, including the fence 
stradlers (mugwumps) have
divided my thinking on this issue and never will. You need to decide who you 
are going to support and stick with them.
Fence straddling only propagates divisiveness. I fully understand looking at 
both sides and waiting for more information
and seeing who will perpetuate the roiginal mission of SSE and who will not. As I saiod I am erring on the side of 
caution and supporting Kent and developing a new seed saving and distribution network that will support any work he does
now or in the future and that of any other heritage seed preservation organization. After what I have been through with 
my farmers market and watching hat seems to be a political power grab take place, right here at home, I am highly 
skeptical of the motives of those who are trying to take over SSE, to say the least.
