Heheh... I read this and couldn't help thinking about an exchange that
happened a few years ago on an organic gardening list. I still laugh
whenever I think about it. It went something like this:

List member #1: How do you all keep grubs from getting in your fruit trees?

#2: I brush used motor oil on the trunks.

#3 (sarcastically): Oh that's just great, where do you get that "organic"
motor oil?

#4: That's easy. You make it yourself by composting dinosaurs.
