Hi Jim & All, May 14, 2007
Good to hear about this book.
On the subject of lichens, I noticed a rich stand of various soil
lichens on May 1; in sparse vascular plant cover on the north-facing
fill of highway 101 and the on-ramp just west of the Elderkin 'Brook'
pipe (If farmers or foresters messed up a brook in this way they would
be in deep dirt. Meanwhile, DOT just keeps trucking.).
Am wondering if road salt favours lichens here by supressing
vascular plants.
