Here's something that stinks of heresy: When lawns start choking from heat
and drought in the middle of summer, bindweed stays green and feels cool to
the feet. In other words, in my previous home, I surrendered. A guy from the
NY Department of Environmental Conservation said "Yeah, there's a chemical
you can use to get rid of it, but it's sorta like agent orange. Got kids?
Want them to live more than a week?"


I am not suggesting anyone use "sorta like agent orange!" But there
are those out there who still hanker for Kelthane. Go figure.
