Great ruling! Now, here's a fantastic business idea. Genetically engineer some kudzu to make it... whatever... greener or something. Patent the strain. Offer to license the beautiful XtraGreen Kudzu for a hundred dollars annually per acre. Let it spread all over the place just like normal kudzu. (By the way, kudzu spreads like crazy all over the South. It can cover an acre faster than you can say, "little lambs eat ivy". There are hour-long stretches of highway lined with lush blankets of it). Then start asking for the royalty payments and start raking it in! Of course the landowners could just have it destroyed, but that would cost them far more than the royalty payments. And I don't want hear any crying about lost nest eggs and poor landowners. XtraGreen rules!!!
