And pray tell, just what is "ferret stuff"?  Medical information about
ferrets?  Training tips for ferrets?  Stories about people who own ferrets?
Pictures of ferrets?
 
Oh wait!  Backup one.  Stories about people who own ferrets.  That's what
you're complaining about.  Well, if you want to pitch out those articles,
Modern Ferret is going to get a whole lot smaller.  There's stories about
people and their ferrets in pretty much every issue.
 
Ms. Taylor, irregardless of her occupation, is a ferret owner.  Why
shouldn't she be able to comment on the joys of being owned by ferrets in a
ferret magazine?
 
I have been too busy with preparations for my sister's wedding lately to
even look at the stack of mail piling up.  Needless to say, I haven't read
the "controversial" issue of Modern Ferret yet.  I have, however, been a
Modern Ferret subscriber since the very first issue.  I've always found the
quality of the magazine to be exemplary.  Even though I have yet to see it,
I have no doubts that the current issue will be any different.  And I will
continue to subscribe, read, and enjoy Modern Ferret irregardless of a few
puritanical comments made.
 
Opinions asked for, opinions given. ;)
