Bill I agree and don't have a problem with what has been  posted.  Trying to 
sell woodcarvings and the discussion of such should be a  part of this and any 
other carving list.  while his tone was offensive I  understand it is only 
his frustration showing through.  I am also sure he  could teach us a lot of 
things that we don't know.  I welcome him to the  list.  I would only have a 
problem if he joined this list trying to use  other carvers for his own purposes, 
mainly money.  Most carvers, perhaps  99% are in love with carving, whether 
they try to sell or not.  If I  approached a woodcarver at a fair and all he was 
intrested in was making a buck,  I would be put off instantly and turn away.  
perhaps it is only the way it  comes through in translation but the mans 
approach is a bit off and very  different from the majority of carvers I have met. 
 If he is interested in  joining our community, I am glad to have him but if 
he is there to use us, thats  entirely another matter.
