Hi IJsbrandtGA
The Cooperative Extension is a good idea - those guys know their stuff.
There is no need to give everyone an acorn but if someone says something you like, you can give them a little green "thumbs up" or just do what you did and say "thank you for your thoughts and comments".
You are welcome. I hope to see you back with a question or a comment soon. Check out the other forums if you have favorite plants or want to learn about a new plant or subject. There's lots to see here.
