[AT] The last question I had on my list for December.

[Ron Cook]

That's nothing.  The darned things show up in Western Iowa as soon as 
you turn up the soil.   I haven't figured that one out either and we are 
alot farther than 10 miles inland!

Moldboard plowing with a pull type plow would be one of my favorites, 
and after someone invented those darned power take-off driven rotary 
stalk cutters I found at new least favorite thing to do.  Cold, windy, 
and very dusty!  I sort of liked it when we got snowed out of that job!  
And I hate snow.  Especially the 21 inches that keeps blowing around 
outside this past week.
