It is astounding to me that everyone wonders why there is such an huge increase in neurological disorders among children while we ignorantly pave over, spray chemicals on and leave our waste all over our world. I get depressed when I think of these wonderful, (mostly)untouched places being 'developed'. Can we just keep some places on earth unsullied by human hands? Why doesn't everyone recognize how delicate our DNA really is? -How amazing it is that we (as a general population) are as healthy as we are?Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10740049258265150141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17953699.post-21121200508619586982007-10-24T12:40:00.000-06:002007-10-24T12:40:00.000-06:00diep woorde daai - van e.e. cummings. ek geniet jo...diep woorde daai - van e.e. cummings. ek geniet jou posts altyd, maar sukkel soms om comments hier te los. blogger is soms 'n bogger!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17953699.post-39621702073987364072007-10-24T09:28:00.000-06:002007-10-24T09:28:00.000-06:00Nope, I haven't, but I will tonight.

Have you read about the interesting history of the specific plant depicted in your link? About how it's the world's oldest monocot? And how it was damaged in a storm centuries ago, and then supposedly regrew its green head? Just like a real dragon. It's one of the most famous trees in the world.
