In the same vane as Julio's analogy between
Prohibition and CITES, I remember a husky bully from childhood, who would grab
frailer subjects for subjugation by the collar and threaten us with, "What
did you say about my mother?" Viateur's fascitious conclusion that Julio
is in favor of the trade of illegal plants is a total non sequitur. Please
note that plants are not intrinsically illegal and only become so when
designated by humans thereby becoming fair game for human
regulations. The subject is flawed human designation, flawed human
regulations and counterproductive human sanctions, not illegal
trade. Bert
