I would also suggest Fugl reread this, after accusing me of "back-pedaling" here:<a href="http://birdforum.net/showthread.php?t=160677#12" target="_blank">http://birdforum.net/showthread.php?t=160677#12</a>While this doesn't address the feeding concern, I agree with you on this, and have from the beginning (see link above).

Heck, maybe I'll even win some hearts and minds. I can't stand the idea of being pigeonholed as someone "beloved of the law" (thanks, Neil - <a href="http://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?t=160783&page=3#65" target="_blank">http://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?t=160783&page=3#65</a>), pretty much the furthest thing from the truth.</blockquote>
