[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1407288, member: 27490"] He was persistent but none of the posts I read would I consider rude, mean-spirited, foul-mouthed etc. I also disagree with True Grit that he "argued". To me he tried to test his understanding albeit based on his reading and other experiences at arms length from the vocation of animal husbandry. I was raised on a tobacco farm. We used draft horses and had a small dairy. Our milk was shipped in ten gallon cans to a cheese plant in Cynthiana, KY. My father whom I mentored under growing up was raised on a farm that had a large dairy. Based on his experience, you might assume he was one you could learn from. Fact is, by today's standards, his knowledge was not progressive. When I began my cattle operation, he was convinced that minerals were a waste of money. I have had to "unlearn" a lot of what I grew up believing. So experience can be bad or it can be good. Personally, I think you could only be offended by City Guy because you allowed yourself to be offended. He was very benign in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
