I know Charlie personally, he's a good ol' boy. He owns a Loomis 8 gauge he bought from me and a Parker 8 gauge lifter as well.

Nothing against Ol' Charlie, I just am failing to follow the narrative of this thread much like my failed attempt to read "Swann's Way" in French...I do smell orange cookies, however, everytime I think of it...perhaps that was "a la Recherche du temps perdu", come to think of it...then again those madeleines may have been soaked in Hoppe's #9...signed, Confused in Palm

So as not to add to further confusion, Roger's posting about me returning my calls had nothing to do with the gun. He was just curious if I wanted to go squirrel hunting Saturday in Ohio but, unfortunately, I'm otherwise engaged with the opening day ducks here in Michigan.

No, dear boy, my confusion had nothing to do with Codger's post which I presumed had to do with squirrels or such. It had to do with the front half of this cluster whatever...

Well, an older gentleman has shown me what they look like and has been eating them his whole life as has several generations of his family. It is also said that there were eaten in the old country, Czechoslovakia. There are a lot of Czech and Slovak people that settled in the Bannister Area. Looking at the National Audubon Society Field Guide to Mushrooms I believe that these are more commonly called Changing pholiota, Pholiota mutabilis. The pictures are not very good but the description is pretty good. They are called "stumpies" or "stump mushrooms" locally. They grow throughout north america and are most commonly found in clusters on coniferous and deciduous logs and stumps in September-November. In this area they are usually most abundant toward the end of October but this fall has been wet and cold.

Make sure you determine the differences between it and Galerina.
