I would like to second Lou's very reasonable & balanced comment. As
one who has witnessed first hand, in Australia & New Zealand the
devastation that introduced plants, animals & fungi have caused, it
is only a small acknowledgement of reality to believe that we should
be doing more in this area. I don't think it should be viewed as
another opportunity to bash the government. Perhaps the new rules
aren't the best, but we could work to improve them, anyone who thinks
kudzu is a reasonable outcome for allowing in anything at all needs
to go look at that mess. There are many others & they are still
happening....woolly aldegid anyone?
