Maybe billions and billions. I still don't like grass farmers.

I don't object to anyone raising hay or horses as long as they do it 
indoors in a sealed room where the airborne stuff can't waft into the 
street I'm walking down.  Same goes for lawns and ornamental trees.

Peotic justice--does that have something to do with the legal system in 
Mexico? Look up irony in your dictionary. Then, go back and read the thread.
HINT: I don't REALLY expect people to stop raising horses, hay, or hibiscus.

Can I call you collect next time I'm in a restaurant with fresh flowers 
on the table? I'd like to hear you object.

Well, ditto for you and your equestrian rolls in the hay, Catherine the 
Great!  So come and tell the horse-people a couple of blocks from me to 
keep their horses inside when the wind is blowing my direction!  Put your 
money where your mouth is! My puppies, sheep and goldfish and I all 
relate to World Peace as our chief perversion.

Do you mean so that someone else can watch and you get the kicks? In any 
event, I committed sepuku on that Ed McMahon Star Search Show years ago, 
and I've since moved on to working for World Peace and Anti-Pollen/Dander 
activism. Don't forget to save a tree for Jesus--just make sure it's 
indoors where it belongs.
