Talk:Tamarix

message: Anybody who is familiar with the tamarix (salt cedar) is likey familiar with its classification as an invasive species and a problem in the South West.  I know little about this plant but am familiar with it as it thrives in many areas where I enjoy hunting, particularly along the Colorado River.
The reason that I am writing this is that I have read and heard about attempts to erradicate these plants by treating them with herbicides, spraying them with enzymes, and importing beetles that damage the plant.  None of these seem ideal and obviosly are either costly or just plain risky.  If that were not the case the problem would have been solved.
In addition to being a conservationist, I am a business man and believe strongly that the best way to eliminate a resource is to establish an economic value for it and allow business to exploit it wholesale.  That said, I challenge the scientific community to focus some of its attentions away from the plants weaknesses and on to its strengths.  For example, I have read that the plant is fire adapted.  If this means that it is less likely to burn than other woody materials pehaps a use for it can be found in the building materials industry.
It is likely that I am not the first to consider this approach but out of all the websites I have visited the focus is on how to exploit its weaknesses and I just thought I would drop this note here where someon more qualified than myself could run with this idea.
Thanks

thread_title: To add to article

message: The opening statement, "They are evergreen or deciduous shrubs or trees...", needs clarification.  It appears to conflict with Wikipedia's statement in its entry on the word "deciduous" that "The antonym of deciduous in the botanical sense is evergreen." Deciduous is the opposite of evergreen.
If this statement is intended to convey that the plant may behave as either an evergreen OR a deciduous tree, depending upon the climate or the species, then that should be clarified. "Tamarix species can be either deciduous or evergreen, depending on the specific species and environmental conditions," would be more clear. The current phrasing implies that the terms are interchangeable, when they are antonyms.
"They may be either evergreen or deciduous..." would provide similar clarification. 76.184.182.200 (talk) 17:47, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

message: According to DANFS the USN considers this and HELENA a separate class, not the 8th and 9th BROOKLYN class.Brooksindy (talk) 09:06, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Since it is the U.S. Navy that determines what its classification of ships will be it is up to the outside writers to explain just how the Navy is mistaken in how it defines its classes. They may have a case to make. If so that must be in the article along with how the Navy classed them — and how their "expertise" trumps a Navy fact. Something along the lines of "The Navy classed the two cruisers separately; however civilian authors take a different view stating that the Navy's reasons for doing so were not sound and the ships were really Brooklyn class." Now their doing so would be presumptuous, like telling the U.S. Senate Senator X is not from state Y, but perhaps they have an argument. For administrative reasons the Navy may class ships separately when in reality they are quite similar and the Navy's classing of them is not significant — except for those the Navy found useful.

message: Who keeps removing my "Citation needed" for the claim that Québec looked to Boston as a model for consolidation? Boston is a major city confined to small city limits surrounded by a large sea of suburbs which use Boston on a daily basis but pay no taxes in, being politically independent from Boston. The city has no experience with controlling suburban leeching by way of expanding its legal jurisdiction in the post-industrial age. Not a stitch of annexation since 1874.

You probably played with one as a kid if your mom had a big button that had two holes in the middle.  You put a loop of string through the two holes and spin it.  It makes a neat whooshing sound.  There's a lot of literature from ancient times about the Magic Wheel being a love charm that would bring lovers close or send away ones you didn't want. --HP Gramatke

Just a few points about the Sex Pistols "God Save the Queen" - please listen to the lyrics before passing judgement.  It does NOT call the Royal Family a "fascist regime".  The lyrics actually say "God save the queen, your facist regime, they made you a moron...."  In other words, the Queen's regime [the government] have caused the Queen herself to become totally pointless.  The lyrics also say that "there's no future in England's dreaming...".  In other words, for most people in Britain there isn't any point in having dreams because you will be kept down and prevented from realising them.  The lyrics did not infer that there was "no future" per se, and in fact far from being an attack on the British nation, it was more in support of them, bemoaning the poor quality lives that most Britons had.
