Something else of the day: My friend, Jim Connell, once told me that if we keep making more plastic and spreading it all over the earth, something will evolve that eats it. I was reminded of that when I discovered there is an animal that eats the aluminum straps off the tops of chain link fences. I took those pictures and wrote that about twenty years ago. Now it's 2019 and here is a plastic table and a couple plastic rocking chairs that something is eating.
