Yes, he did. Seems the old trademark problem is rearing its ugly head again.

No reasonable person could confuse this Forum with being part of IBM/Lenovo!

It's far too helpful and friendly to be confused with a corporate monolith.

Looks like a toucan to me. But I defer to old-timers, who must know better, when they say it's a parrot.

it IS a toucan.. :D

i used to keep several toucans.. toco toucans..

they are devilishly tough to keep alive for more than 5 years in my sad experience.. :(

so now i keep 4 cockatoos and 3 parrots.. and, of course, my redhead spousal unit..
that is three plain white umbrella cockatoos, one fancy pink moluccan cockatoo, two redheads (one an eclectus parrot and the above mentioned
spousal unit) and two green (male eclectus and yellow nape amazon)..

thanks for mentioning the birds.. :)
