Just my opinion here, but I'd avoid the hissy fit, Ken. You don't need to buy orchids in bulk to get more of the ones you liked. Just order one or two from Hawaii or California for yourself.
Better yet, plan a few more trips around the spring orchid show dates and a visit to Apopka as well, of course. Pick out some new things or take a list and make it a quest to find the old ones that you want.
I'm thinking I'll have to make the pilgrimage to the Redlands show, and the big Tamiami one, some day. Tamiami is in mid-January, and Redlands is mid-May at the Fruit and Spice park which I'd really love to visit again, too.
