Re:    1. Exotic Invasive Plants = Cancer? (Craig Dremann)

That is more or less the approach as I read it of Ruiz and Carlton in
"Invasive Species: Vectors and Mangement Strategies" - the vectors are in
this analogy the weakness that we can try to exploit.  Political methods
(e.g. treaties, regulations) may join the more tradional approaches as
tools to combat the spread.
