Paint in our neck of the woods also. Give me a fish, I will eat for a day. Teach me to fish, I will eat for a lifetime

It seems that if it is really rare everyone wants to see it...Ironic that the last of its kind dies from being stepped on by some "do gooder" trying to take a photo of it... I did some work on your St John's River with Furbish's lousewort in the mid 1980's and we were kind of secretive about where we found them... ~Illegitimi Non Carborundum~

Researchers went back 3 years later only to find holes in the ground and left-over tags, this was 2 weeks after they presented a paper at a conference.
