[IBC] Moo the Dew! (For Nina!)
 

Any comments from our plant pathologist, or is this another "old cow's
tale"?

At one point, in my former job, I was so desperate for grant money I
wrote a grant proposal to test this. So I know a little about it.
From what I understand, there's evidence that milk will control
powdery mildew, and more importantly, I recently saw milk on a list
of substances exempt from EPA regulation. You understand the sheer
impossibility of someone sucessfully registering rancid milk as a
pesticide. It costs tens of thousands of dollars to register a
substance, and no one would have done it had it been required for
milk. Happily, milk fell under the same category as cedar wood for
moth control; something presumed to be benign to humans.

On the less bright sight: man, is that gonna smell.

By the time it ended, *I* was ready to marry the male finch. What a
singer!
