In Reply to: Are you Melissa Kaplan.....??? posted by Grey_Owl on March 01, 2003 at 17:55:34:
Melissa Kaplan has her own user name here, and has used it plenty of times. I don't think that the writer of this post (sorry, forgot the name already) was trying to make Henry Lizardlover look bad. In my opinion, she brought up several valid points and concerns. I didn't see the documentary, but if Henry really acts in the ways she described, I would say he is being irresponsible. Salmonella is a risk with reptiles, and having other people, including children, pet your lizards at a restaurant, while they are eating, without giving any warning about the potential risk of salmonella is not right. I don't know what Henry's normal practices are. It's possible that he did warn people about the risk and instruct them to wash their hands before eating, but that these parts got cut out when the show went on the air. In any case, given the concerns that are our there about salmonella and the reptile community in general, I don't think we want this sort of message aired to the public. Besides, it may give others the message that it is okay to have their reptiles in restaurants around food without taking any precautions.
:Cause I know that you two don't seem to like each other i.e. you and Henry. I'm just courious cause I think if you are Kaplan, you should day so or are you just trying to make hime look bad??
:just curious
