In truth, it's a lot of fun when these jokers do come over because when a person knows the truth it's fun to stump them folks. They get so flabbergasted that they very seldom return.

This got me thinking, who do I consult with? I don't want it taken as "I don't need to listen to anyone" or "I know everything". Far from it. I love learning from "doers", people that really do it. An expert is someone who did it and succeeded. And is willing to share. That's one reason I'm exited about JM and his family getting up here in a bit. I know that he knows things I don't and it'll help us a lot here. And maybe I can give them some advice on something, maybe not. But it rubs me a little the wrong way when big ag figures that they'll appoint an expert to basically run us broke here. But at least the first visit from these caracters should have a lot of entertainment value. I hope I'm not busy when the guy comes here, it'd be hard to buy entertainment that good.

This joker had went broke farming, something like 3 times. Just the guy to me how to farm :) Old Saying..... Those who can't do....teach.

And it sounds like a lot of your fellow farmers are starting to wise up. That is good news! You are a good beacon for them -- and hopefully for some of the rest of us who are still 99% Aspiring and only 1% Agrarian. Thanks! Big ag co-op vs. local independent co-op:
