This is just my opinion here so don't condemn the whole group for what I'm
about to say but: Your lack of creditability stems from the total invisibility of you or your company or the manufacturer of Bio Booster. You sonder in here totally anonymous and refer people to your web page which makes a lot of claims which may even be accurate and true. The problem is there is no one listed on your web page who can be found to take responsibility for those claims. "Pondwoman"...who the hell is Pondwoman? The first thing legitimate companies do when the build a web page is put the name of their company, their address, phone number and even have a sub category as to their credentials and a bio on the company...there is none of that on your page and the excuse that you don't have time to finish the web site just doesn't fly with me. If you're legit you finish the web site before you steer people to it. Who knows, people could send you money and you send them pixie dust and they can never find you....It's worse than SPAM...in my opinion, it looks like SCAM! BK "PondWoman" wrote in message om...

Here are a few questions:
Why are you being so doggoned pushy? You just sauntered in here (to quote another poster) yesterday, as far as I can tell. (And into uk.rec.fishing.game -- where, BTW, I can't wait to see your reply to Malcolm, who asked if algae are edible!) Who are you, anyway? Who makes Bio Booster? Why direct us to a website that is so incredibly lame as to beggar belief? Why are the pictures on the website so poor? (Actually, the thumbnails are much poorer than the actual pictures.) Any number of posters to rec.ponds have put up pictures of much higher quality [(at least technically! ![]() they aren't trying to sell us something, except maybe for spreading "pond fever"! Why don't you bring a sense of humor with you when you post to a newsgroup, *especially* if you're intent on selling us something? (Although I have to admit that I got a chuckle out of your response "I work in brackish as well as fresh water." Dang, I could almost see you in there, just wadin' around in that brackish water!) Just my $.02, Anne Lurie Raleigh, NC "PondWoman" wrote in message om... Did I miss anyones questions, if so, please let me know PondWoman www.bluewaters.us |

Boy!!!! I sure am glad I didn't try to sell anything to this NG. The
flames are melting my keyboard. Now I have to go to that UK NG to see if an ALGAE DIET could be a threat to Atkins. PW get a sense of humor or your toast here. ALGAE TOAST the new snack bar. Comes in 17,000 freshwater flavors. "PondWoman" wrote in message om... Did I miss anyones questions, if so, please let me know PondWoman www.bluewaters.us |

musings from somebody who haunts uk.rec.fishing.game.
thanks for quoting me Annie, I am English and now living in the USA, one thing I heard long ago on BBC Radio 4, was the wonder discovery that bales of Straw dropped into water kills Algae, prob an old country thing that Scientists have rediscovered, as the Grass family of plants live on the ground, and are damp from dew and rain, they need a built in Algae killer. regards malcolm "Anne Lurie" wrote in message . com...

Snooze,
I love your suggestion. If it's ok with you II intend to put it in my practise. -- _______________________________________ "The difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast: The chicken was 'involved' - the pig was 'committed'." http://community.webshots.com/user/godwino "Snooze" wrote in message snip you might answer it with something like this: I have found the most effective algae control is performed by doing this, that, and the other thing. At Bluewater we also make a product called "blah blah blah," that we feel aids in keeping the water clean and clear. |

WOW, I had to replace 4 keys this morning from the meltdown. Let me
see if I can try and answer all the questions or comments. Annie, yes, LOL i do wade sometimes, and I keep a picture of a little 2 ft alligator on my desk to remind me there are dangerous critters lurking out there! I came to the ponds site to give back a little of what I have been blessed with. I dont sell to small pond owners. The ones who contact me directly that have seen my work or know of it, I go out, take readings review the situation and give them enough product along with instructions, to get them headed in the right direction. Sometimes I do this over the phone or via email. Alot of this comes from referrals of people who I have already helped. All this is done on my own time, I am not compensated in any way. In return I make many friends and in some small way, help with our environment. The website was set up for people who know me and my work. Pictures are worth a thousand words they say, altho I admit I am no photographer! My html skills are even more limited. I went ahead and set up a forum for any folks who just wanted some practical information. I am in no way compensated for any of the information I was providing here. Its all on my own time. You are right in the fact there is no company mentioned and no place to buy product. Yes, the company I work for has an intricate site, but there is no mention of buying product, just technical information and contact numbers along with pictures and information. Altho, in the near future you may see product available to a larger retailer, this is not my project and I will not be compensated in any way. I am a believer in sharing information and also a believer in giving back some of what has been given me. My projects involve utility companies, research universities, new product development, institutions, lake management firms, etc. I am a member of many professional aquatics associations. I do work in wastewater, altho its not my favorite job, I do it. My work with small pond owners is all non gratis. I like it that way, I have done my part and get a great satisfaction from that work. Im not out to make any money here, I have been blessed in many ways. Everything is not always about money. I will read your posts, and if I can contribute I will, never want to be considered pushy. I will never flame another poster or publically disagree with any mention of treatment. If I see a post I agree with, I will agree. My sole purpose here was to just share information I have learned over the years. PW ( which by the way was a nic name from a coworker, I am the only female ![]() |
