Took my 13 yr old daughter and her friend canoeing and kayaking today
on the Wacissa River here in N. FL. Pretty clear and cold spring
water, just what we need on a hot Memorial Day.
However, as usual, the hydrilla weeds were in abundance. Daughter
looked at it and had an idea. She suggested harvesting it, drying it
and then using it to soak up the oil spill. Then she had another
idea, to use the algae that is infesting all of our springs from
fertilizer run-off for the same purpose., Harvest it, dry oit to kill
it and then drop it on the oil spill. Then use the unemployed
fisherment with their nets to scoop it up when it is saturated with
oil, squeeze the oil out and re-use.


My three year old Maine coon cat told us he thought we should gather up
all the world's grass clippings, dry them out, and mix them in with the
oil in the Gulf.

So, is my cat as smart as your kid...or vice versa?
