Didn’t know what to expect on Triffic Day, but it was a lot less than I anticipated. Just didn’t have the same zing as Invasion of the Bodysnatchers, Tarantula or even The Mole People.

This could be a type of bio-warfare.

After 9/11 the agriculture departments at the university I graduated from were very much focused on intentionally introduced crop and animal diseases.

Don’t plant them.

You never know if they might be an invasive species or GMO.

The USPS is the least reliable, most expensive,> and most trackable method that China, or anyone else, could devise for introducing some noxious plant. Especially since virtually all such packages will go straight into the trash.

Just scatter some across the country in favorable locations. Seeds and weeds know what to do. They will take care of business naturally. Why pay postage and hope people will plant something unknown and unsolicited in their yards and gardens? Send a dozen “students” on cross country vacation trips by car. Scatter them in public parks, along the roadsides, or along streams.

Plant species can be identified by its seed, not whether the seed is good or bad. Thus, the desirability of a plant can be determined by the seed. I believe that was your point.

You’d better watch out for dentists too!

Good thing mine's just a nice, normal guy.

But I can't figure out the anal irritation after sleep dentistry. Must be the gas mixture.
