And lot of farm/ranch kids major in agriculture and take their degrees home. A lot of them wind up being ag business majors, that was the most popular option. I couldn't stand the professor the upper division classes for that option, so I chose the option that had the nice people. lolJ.Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09211819677106829508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2029299587784890117.post-29047122277132738632012-02-14T22:45:26.627-08:002012-02-14T22:45:26.627-08:00Yes they are! lol I'm not sure what opinionate...Yes they are! lol I'm not sure what opinionated hacks they have writing for them, but they are one way or the other, hardly ever middle of the road.<br /><br />I hate seeing houses being built on farmland as well. Or when cities keep moving their "green belts" back for that purpose. If you take away the farmland, where does the food come from??J.Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09211819677106829508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2029299587784890117.post-20860110123661901112012-02-14T22:42:53.272-08:002012-02-14T22:42:53.272-08:00I don't put too much stock in their opinions, ...I don't put too much stock in their opinions, because usually they are numbers people and not educated in the business much.

Their degree came from the University of Father, the college of doing, the department of trial and error.
