That's a new type of cured Italian ham, BTW.

It's funny; when I called the National Wildlife Association regarding my
backyard wildlife habitat application, they guy asked that I don't send Latin
names! How odd.


No, that means he studied range management at an ag school prior to
about 1970. The ag management and horticulture business's abhorrence
of latin binomials was a major impediment to the incorporation of
native plants in landscaping. You can still go to nurseries selling
"Red Oaks". Ignorance dies a hard death.
