Grainy henna + the latest contorvercy

I bought some henna recently and sieved it once through a single
layer of stocking (pantyhoe to the other side of the wetspot) and
then sieved it again through a double layer so it had a great powdery
consistancy. I mixed with lemon only as i want a more red shade.
After mixing i noticed that it was sorta grainy as if it hadn't been
sieved at all. Why is that? any ideas?

As for the latest controvercy I can see both sides of the current
argument about advertising but is really sad to see everyone bitching
at each other.
Some of us (myself included) sell henna and of course we want the
custom of people on the forum - and the lurkers. However i feel that
the current bitchiness may put people off buying from the traders
involved.

The discussion is getting rather hot and way out of hand with jibes
and insults coming from many direction. The friendships we have made
here could be in jeoprdy due to business competition and interests.
That is really sad. Business and monitary gain before friendships and
comradary (s/p?) Maybe i'm just not a good businesswoman.

Perhaps it might be a good idea to agree to point people who are
interested in buying henna to the suppliers page. Maybe Jeremy could
give the suppliers say 50 words to promote thier henna.
Nothing is to stop you e-mail privatly about personal henna supplies.

I would just hate to see the foundations of this forum crumble.
