I would be hard pressed to give free info to a pay site

I agree with minxie - "Dave" would be the one getting the favor. Stan, I think your comment raises an interesting idea though - FCBS has a great photo index, but there is not accompanying text that elaborates on the identifying characteristics of Tillandsias, or habitat, ethnobotanical, or natural history information. Perhaps Wikipedia would be a good venue to host an exhaustive, encyclopedic set of entries on the genus - and Wikipedia is public. There are some entries already, but they do not contain a great deal of information (see example linked below). The great thing about Wikipedia is that gonzer, or anyone else for that matter, can contribute to the entries as they wish.

Here is a link that might be useful: Wikipedia entry on Tillandsia cucullata

Dave's Garden's search is free. I use it all the time. The best reference on the net. Gonzer would be great on actually growing Tillandsia's in the real world.Not greenhouse or habitat.
They have nobody though to do that now. Gonzers large experience would be there to always reference.

Many things are unavailable to non paying members. So information is limited and photo's

I'm not too pleased with Dave's format of membership for certain information. If you have to pay for the privelage of sharing knowledge that can benefit others in our hobby, I'd say that system's a little screwy. Unless the end result of using a certain site results in monetary gain (which is pretty inclusive in itself), then browsing should be free. Thanks for the kind words though Stan.
