I think Bill needs to accept weed (VBG), liking dusting the house, never go
away.  Also Bill, I recently read an article on weed seeds and their ability
to produce descendents.  Some weeks make several types of seed, those that
germinate immediately and those that can remain for many years until
conditions are right.  All have some mechanism that sustain them and cause
you to hate them.
Oh, Claire, I do accept weeds; I have no other choice.  I just try my best to keep them in moderation.  It's actually not the seeds I am concerned about in my weed piles--I don't put flowering weeds in there.  It's the roots.  Stick a big pile of weeds with roots and a little soil attached to them and I fear I'm running a weed nursery instead of a compost pile.

Well, guess I'll go carve up some turves (LOVE this new word!).
