Enh. You’ve watched too many disaster movies from the ‘70s. If it gets loose, you develop a very aggressive strain of bacteria that eats the diesel-secreting little buggers, set it loose in the area of outbreak, and that’s that. If it were a ‘70s disaster flick, of course, the bacteria would be super smart, and wage war against humans. But really, bacteria is rather stupid, and only knows how to eat, excrete, and reproduce.

Good point I guess, though I'm not much of a movie-goer or television-watcher so I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. Can you name the movies I've not seen?

But I do gather kudzu is really no big problem in the South and they have good uses for it there.

So maybe you're right; adapted bacteria is no threat whatsoever.

Eh - it's already a naturally occurring bacteria. It hasn't done irreparable damage in its natural state.

Can I quote you on this?
