Hi Lawrence,

I suppose I had this coming. Please note that I never write anything against 
people but only against some ideas some people may have. From your text 
below it is obvious that Mark is a man after my own heart. I am also ever so 
sorry that we have no snakes at all in Ireland and little wild life 
otherwise. What wild animals there be are fast being reduced by all kind of 
means for the pervading opinion seems to be that if it can't be sold it is 
not worth anything and thus should make place for something that is worth 
some filty lucre.

Fact remains that we would all be completely ignorant and impotent against 
the PTB if it were not for real science and real scientists.
Some of these real scientists pay with their career and sometimes even their 
life if they find evidence that goes against the propaganda flow from big 
brother. Anyone who got out of the Matrix must have had some help from real 
science somewhere along the line for no single human life is long enough to 
see through the enormous mass of disinformation that exists out there and 
that grows further every day.
In fact, what is most typical of science is a critical, questioning mind. If 
you question and don't believe everything you are told or given to read you 
are doing science. And it is up to everyone for himself to make out how 
objective he or she wants to be.

As to my own farm and posting pictures...I am not a great photographer for 
starters. We have a ten meter waterfall on the land and I have in the past 
tried my best to do this justice with a picture. It came out flat.
Also I normally work outside all the hours of the day that it is light 
enough to see. Not easy to make pictures in the dark.
All the boundaries of our 70 something acre farm are streams or rivers, 
about 2 meters wide at most and we have more streams running through the 
property. We have two lakes of which the biggest is about 2 acres. We are 6 
miles from the Atlantic but on the S slope of a mountain.
