   Great, jussssssst great.  Now the sewers of Kansas City are 
sure to be full of chile obsessed giant caterpillars.  New York
just has to worry about rats and alligators coming out of the 
toilets, but you had had to one-up them, eh? ;-)

   FWIW I do a morning and evening hornworm check this time
of year.  They usually make a run at defoliating the tomatoes
first.  The peppers are apparently their second choice, so they
are spared since once spotted on the tomatoes, the squishing
commences in one big hurry.
