I have to chuckle when they post these.

Salmo Trutta made the IUCN's top 100 most invasive species list.

So, Salmo Trutta makes the list, but Homo Sapiens does not? Guess who wrote the list. ;-)

Fallacy of relevance. Two wrongs don't make a right. etc. etc. etc.

In the first link Afish provided, the word “think” needs to be removed from the last sentence in that tweet. I have already expressed this to a PFBC administrator as well as the reasoning behind it, supported by real life experiences. I received a positive response. I don’t know enough about tweets to know whether or not they can be changed after the fact, but I expect that the words chosen by agency reps will change in the future.

We've tried to provide informational signage to PFBC on bowfin for this exact reason. Of course, we need them to actually respond to us to be able to provide and install the signs.
