An interesting article Warren.

Nature always finds a way to rebuild and repair herself.

I just love those fruity frogs that are sold as confectionary. You can have those slimy ones that live in ponds They have no appeal to me.

I thought a lot of those frogs had croaked -
Maybe they were even more transparent before and you couldn't see them at all.
