Thanks for the reply.

No, Jim is now President of SODC as well as being coordinator of the "Canadian Tomato Project" (biting my tongue mightily here). If you check his website as well as other stuff he has done on the SODC website (the database is NOT his doing) you'll see the name changes. You'll also see his listing of registered Ag Can varieties by their slang names, not the correct ones. Eg, Charlie's Red Staker not simply the registered Red Staker. As well, Doucet's Red Plum---AgCan would NEVER allow public breeders' names to be used in government-bred varieties. Full stop.

Don't see need for another thread. Let's keep incorrect histories and names in the same thread per the extraordinary efforts by Carolyn in the past.

Just my thoughts though,
Jennifer
