Albizia Tree Containment

[MarkP]

At the risk of inflaming an argument by picking sides, I'm with Midnight Rambler. I know to stop listening when someone trots out the old mongoose vs rat analogy while examples from the last 30 years are conspicuously absent from their rant. If one were to invoke the level of scientific understanding that existed in the 1800s there would be no reason to stop with the ill considered efforts of a bunch of good old boy planters. Civil war surgeons didn't know enough to sterilize their instruments and probably killed as many as they saved. According to the logic typically employed by anti-bio-control zealots it must therefor be assumed that modern day surgeons are no better than their counterparts from the 17th century.
