I couldnt even read past 1 1/2 lines. Do you even try to make it readable?
I thought it wasn't bad, as far as teh Interwubz goes. He wasn't asking how is babby formed, after all...
I make no specific effort to support either of the LHBS around here, because one of them kindof sucks for that (they are awesome for beers, but mediocre at best for brewing supplies) and the other one is pretty good but they are pretty far out of my way (well, 20 minutes... I know, I shouldn't complain, I know some people drive two hours to go to their LHBS, but the crappy one is <5 minutes from my house, so I am spoiled...)
That said, if I just need one or two things, the shipping from any of the online places will kill me, so I still end up buying a fair amount of stuff locally anyway, and I feel good about the balance. For example, I have a bunch of crap arriving from AHS today (UPS says it's out for delivery, I'm all excited!), but I was ordering stuff for two different recipes and I managed to forget a few ingredients, plus I need some more tubing, I'm almost out of PBW, I need some Irish moss... long story short, I'm going to be buying about $20-25 from the LHBS (the one 5 minutes from my house), plus I'll probably grab a few commercial brews while I am there, so they are getting paid too. The AHS order was over $100 (to get the free shipping), but I've probably spent that much locally, in bits and pieces, since my last AHS order.
If your LHBS is conveniently located, I imagine you'll find yourself doing something similar, i.e. mail order for when you plan ahead, LHBS for when you don't.
