John,
Thanks for asking the question about why Mr. Blom referred to college kids dumping an aquarium. I had wondered too but could not think of a neutral way to ask the question. I’d so glad you did, with just the right tone and true curiosity.
All,
I’m interested in any opinions you have about an article in the hydrilla library on the origins of hydrilla in the US.
Travels with Hydrilla: The Unnatural History of an Accidental Invader by Michael W. Fincham, The Chesapeake Quarterly/Maryland Sea Grant. Details the introduction of hydrilla to the U.S. and its rapid spread.
