If I had the time and the talent I think I could come up with an environmentally oriented comic book... where legions of BUGS type microbes are the protagonist Super Heroes and of course the antogonist villians would be greedy or dense-headed corporate polluters. A Saturday morning cartoon would eventually evolve (and naturally become syndicated).... and the BUGS technology would naturally spread across the planet.... friends of every good little boy and girl ...who will eventually become the denizens of corporate America and multi-national companies. The Beanie Baby type animal panacea could give way to exotic microbe toys filled with microbes instead of polystyrene pellets..... Imagine a toy capable of eating their own collective weight in hydrocarbons or caustic chemicals in a given day. Parents could buy them and kids could purposely throw them out knowing they are helping clean up the landfills. Might be worthwhile for Mr. Brehm to look at some earthy marketing of that nature.... what do you think? If that sounds too lofty then perhaps he had best address the daily tonnage of fecal matter that is produced by the hog world...... here is an interesting dynamic site that can really give a US Microbic shareholder a chub.... if these farms were to convert to BUGS technology for their fecal waste stream problems. hogwatch.org BTW .... Brad and his brother did pretty good in selling off SI for $33 million.... If their concept can work (hosting a cyber space discussion area) why not a tangible microbe filled, clear acyrillic container in the shape of a microbe? It would be like an effigy of an ant filled with ants... but in this case a microbe effigy filled with microbes. All contents and ideas are copyrighted to the author. <g>

I think there was an article about BUGS in some local NC paper a while back. Do you recall this? It related to the hog problem and some state law. But I don't recall what it was. Actually the entire southeast has a problem with too much nitrogen getting into waterways and then choking them with algae blooms and certain vegetation (water hyacinth?). Florida has the worse problem and it threatens the everglades which means the water supply for Miami. It is definitely a geography that BUGS should pay attention to.
