[QUOTE="guywhofishes, post: 224461, member: 337"] yes - the thread morphed over to migration and the bigger issue almost instantly - resulting in my position being painted as an "anti-animal to save-money" position, while that's not me at all I am in 100% agreement that general migration is a huge problem - one that makes me sad like you.
