Who would have thought there would be so many opinions on this one.
Opinions? You know what they say in the land where many, many Labs are bred for whatever reasons other than to say they're "the anti-American" model: Never waste a marketing opportunity without capitalizing on it.

Not real steady on point yet but it's only been 5 wks. post surgery....
