[QUOTE="John B, post: 1799, member: 207"] It's interesting that if you forget to dot an i or cross a t on a harvest declaration then MPI can come down like a ton of bricks but if you report somebody selling honey from the side of the road even in the high tutin area suddenly everybody is too busy to do anything. I personally think that the standards have been set way too high and some of the hoops you have to go through are just ridiculous but if we have to have standards then they should be applied evenly to everybody and they are not. I have been tempted to rub MPI's nose in a couple of local messes that they have been told about but studiously ignored. Don't get me wrong I have some good friends in MPI and there are some wonderful people there but also many that seemed to be just out to make life difficult and some of the decisions from on high are just ridiculous. They can also make life very difficult for people who disagree with them. [/QUOTE]
