JD, I've rented my farm out since 1997 due to health issues of two children, and later on, myself, also.
A sort of friend since childhood has bitched for years about us evil landlords, or what $$$ estate land sells for.
A long time ago, I said "Carl", if the day comes when you can no longer farm your land (or your family) and you decide to rent it out or sell some, will you be looking for the lowest bidder?
He didn't understand where I was coming from 'til some health issues cropped up in his extended family, as well as a couple of brothers wanting to retire.
5 brothers farm around 60 quarters of land, there's only ONE son from all that that is a part of the operation, plus a nephew that's come back to farm, last time I talked to him they're gonna let some go.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
