I Ate Poison Ivy in Another Life; Dolphins Have a Really Bad Week

REMEMBER WHEN: Do you believe in reincarnation? Me, neither. How could I not recollect having once been, say, an earthworm or an exotic shrub? Still, now and again, I toy with the re-embodiment subject, mainly when I come across life forms I hope not to morph into for the next existence.

For perfect instance, just last week I got a press release about an effort to squelch a serious plant problem attacking the famed Fort Hancock Park in Sandy Hook.
