I obviousley love P/R birds but the guy next to me might prefer Imprints which is good and makes things Interesting .... This was a bit of a bundle which kicked off a while back on the Imprint vs P/R saga! I've been involved on this subject on other forums and Forums which have now finished so its easier to just cut and paste some stuff out of the archives now below....
