[#0000bf][size 1]In my way of thinking that is bad thinking. It would take thousands if not millions of the invasive to be present before they would be recognized as being present. In the mean time we could have move them to many other places. The diatoms and a mudsnails only require one to start a new colony somewhere else. Getting the word spread wide enough to generally be known would take months to years to accomplish. How many things we hear, see, or read take multiple times before it sinks into our tough old brain cells?[/size][/#0000bf]
