Honestly, BigFL I am not too proud to admit when I don't know something, and if I don't I will try to look-up the facts so that I try to have a leg to stand on when I speak about a subject. I simply don't know the facts about many things in life ... and I am still learning here as I go along ... so I am here to gain knowledge also. We never stop learning!
If, through my research, I would have learned that DE is positively a better wormer than conventional means, then I would be in the process of re-writing the worming section of my book. Believe that! Instead, what I have learned here is that DE *is* a beneficial product, and without your guys' input I would never have researched it this hard. In doing so, I myself have become more educated on the subject, and I hope so too have others. What is good to do is try to be rational and civil, and I thank you very much for having done so here. We may not agree on everything, but I hope we can both always remain courteous and realize we have BOTH learned some new things by way of this debate.
And, actually, that is the purpose of intelligent debate: for both parties to discuss their differences, in order to discover the truth, so that BOTH parties come away the better-off for it. So, in the end, I may be re-writing my book after all, but it won't be in the worming section, it will be in the nutrition section.
Cheers,
Jack
