Has anyone had contact with Andrew "Corpuscal" in FL. or know what became of him? In Oct last year I gifted him a couple of 1 gal fig plants. We had on-going communication up until I sent the trees. He didn't answer my emails or acknowledge they arrived or a thank you. He just fell off the map. I didn't even have his whole name. Just A. Andrew. __________________ Soni GA. 7-8. seeking Galicia Negra, Bianchi Guido, Violette de Sollies, Emerald Strawberry

Sorry to hear that. It's the classic hit and run. Sometimes it doesn't pay to be nice! __________________ Art- Western Pa. 6a

You don't know that kubota. Something could have happened to guy. I remember a guy on GW forum waiting for the other guy to hold his end of the trade up (respected member)....they found his obituary a few weeks later online... __________________ San Jose 9b http://www.kevinsedibleyard.com/

I think i remember that screen name now that you mention him again. Hopefully it wasnt a hit and run but then again hopefully nothing bad happened to him. Hey soni, I sent you a pm the other day, did you get it? I noticed sometimes when i send a pm it doesn't go through unless I send it twice. __________________ Ryan Zone 9a SeLa, wish list:

Looks like he was a 20 year-old student who was only active on the forum for a month: http://figs4funforum.websitetoolbox.com/profile/2243828 __________________ ============================ [B]Figaro Zone 10b - South Florida[/I] Growing: Black Mission, Strawberry Verte, LSU Hollier, LSU Purple, LSU Scotts Black, Cajun Gold, Panachee, Excel, UCR 291-4, UCR 143-36, Violette de Bordeaux, Ronde de Bordeaux, Calvert, Black Madeira, Col De Dame Blanc Wish List: CdDN, CdDG, Ischia Black, Galicia Negra ============================

He was having such a hard time finacially that he was trying to grow his own food. I hope he's OK, you just never know what happened. __________________ Soni GA. 7-8. seeking Galicia Negra, Bianchi Guido, Violette de Sollies, Emerald Strawberry

Sorry to hear that. You just never know. I'd rather it be a hit and run than something happened to him- that's just me. __________________ 7a & 9b ►I assume all my figs carry FMV ◄ Seeking : Italian 376,395 , Galicia Negra, Negretta,UNK Pastilliere ,Pananas Purple, Malta Blk+purple/red, Italian + Calabrian UNK's , Catanzaro, Malone, Sucrette(Baud) "We may have our private opinions but why should they be a bar to the meeting of hearts?" - Gandhi

Very disheartening. Here I am growing figs for fun while he and probably many others out there are growing it because they need to. Makes me feel a little guilty. __________________ David, North GA, zone 7b Growing figs since May 2014. Wish List: Cuttings: Kesariani, Battaglia Green, Col de Dama Rimada, Col de Dame Noir

The PM system on this board is notoriously horrible - in the past, many messages just didn't find their destination. It's better to send email if you have that option. __________________ WillsC's new fig forum: http://www.Ourfigs.com (and blueberries)
