It is really quite interesting. HAs anyone else thought about this. It's really not a problem (I suppose) but I find it amazingly amusing. And our favorite people do it or are famous for it. Can anyone guess? I'll let you have at it to see if anyone comes up with it or thinks of something different.

Well you are partially right. I was goiing to say that every time someone discovers a new plant/form/ssp/etc we all scramble to get one even though the original plant is obviusly collected from the field. Yet we vicously condem field collecting. Actually it is kind of ironic becuase most everyone one here condems field collecting but at the same time if a new plant is discovered everyone of those people would love to get one. I can only think of one person on here who I might beleve if they said they did not support collecting specimens of this new plant from the wild.
