I don't hunt, although I own lots of guns.  I am too sentimental to
kill animals for sport, although I am far from a vegetarian.  I like birds,
I like birding, and I like birders.  There are times however, when some of
my birding friends get a bit sanctimonious and, dare I say it, elitist when
discussing the one class of people in this country who have contributed the
most to wildlife conservation.
        I can live with contradictions.
