I'd allow Jungle Chuckie to cover the entire state of Iowa with useless "rain forest" if he would dummy up and tow the line on stopping the suicidal taxation of capital formation.

(Of course, after he built it, I'd make the SOB LIVE in it.)...

No, actually there is little if any grass in a jungle. In clearings, yes, but generally the not. Due to lighting deficits, only fast growing vines and plants established by runners can survive under a jungle canopy. Not that it isn't the same in thickly wooded forest of any kind. ;^) In temperate areas where leaves fall, the floor of the forest may become covered with fast growing, wide leaf plants prior to the new cover of tree leaves maturing.

I am surely, no expert, this is simply my personal experience.

One note, I heard that they have discovered trees give off methane (a greenhouse gas), so the eco-nuts may want to cut the rain forest down now.

Odd how concrete has the ability to spawn liberals. They may come full circle with their roots, no pun, soon.
