Finally, something.. although it's probably too little too late and all that..
The feds were through here in the early '80s with a proposal to eradicate fruit flies, in other words give Hawaii's ag industry a fighting chance, using the same sterile males technique. But of course the folks hereabout drove them away. No no, we can't have that! Although what sterile fruit flies could do to harm us I don't think I ever heard articulated.. but it was enough to drive the feds away. Otherwise we'd be shipping all sots of stuff to the mainland now..
Hopefully this new program will help.
