(.......a bit obtuse, I admit..........suggesting that the only way to rid that lovely, bucolic scene of the kudzu is a napalm run...........'course, won't do much for the cabin, but the kudzu WILL be gone.............for a while............)

If you tell a liberal that gun control causes global warming, you can make his head explode.

TY for the clarification. The more I learn about the wackos, the more I'm willing to consider anything as possible. FReegards....

I have secretly been cross breeding Kudzu and Marijuanna for
several years, now I have a plant that will not only stone you but take over your house.
Help, I can't get to the front door........But who cares........

Wonder just which vines they are talking about?
Ayahuasca??? Hmmmmmmmm.
Could use some Banisteriopsis Caapi myself.

"Damn, I love Kudzu. When I was a kid I could hide all day in those patches." Just wait till 'Jap Grass' (Coogan grass) gets there.
(You'll be able to hide in Jap grass also, lol)

Funny but I don't remember Tarzan ponying up billions for a vine system that only allows transport between selected trees that don't happen to be near anywhere he wants to "hang out" at. :)
But then again many BART riders do seem to resemble Tarzan's vine swinging buddies. :) And they do seem to feel entitled to ride for free, subsidised by the rich (Tarzan being king of the jungle and all.)

Well!!!!
THAT would explain the sudden growth of wild grapevines in my woods!!!
Probably have to stop cutting the lawn and spewing all those globalwarming chemicals.
Wonder why I didn't think of that???

More amusing and much less messy.

They want to kill people in large numbers...NOT that far fetched! Check out this site: Voluntary Human Extinction Movement
I quote:
Phasing out the human race by voluntarily ceasing to breed will allow Earth's biosphere to return to good health. Crowded conditions and resource shortages will improve as we become less dense."May we live long and die out"

Then in one day, I heard the word three times. That's when I looked it up on the net. Amazing About a mile and a half from where I live, kudzu has completely swallered up a house where an old man lived until about a year ago.
On another subject, wouldn't these be "rainforest" vines, rather than "jungle" vines. After all, when jungles acquire a PC name like "rainforest", I think the Earthfirst vines should also be PC.

the biomasss of the trees will absorb as much as a comprable mass of tree and maybe more.

I guess nobody else was willing to dare the sound of rimshots, but here goes:
"But hey...it's a jungle out there!"
(even for the trees)
