Well, Ferreter, if we couldn't touch our shells, and fondle them from

Instead of critising why don't you think about what was said. Is your
collections sole purpose to be fondled like a spoiled brat who won't share
his toys. Or do you share them with others and attempt to educate? This is
the idea of which I wrote. Last time I made the mistake of insulting
someone I had my head torn off so please remove your foot from my
backside.....
