Wheeler We can take care of the two latest net plagues with one solution: Force all hunters of dear to contribute one dear for every two they kill to Oxfam to be shipped to some third world country such as Ethiopia where the food is *needed*. I think this particular farmer must be a bit lacking in inteligence if he doesn't think of putting up a fence. Sure it costs a lot to cover an orchard, but that is a one time cost as apposed to loosing the bottom branches of all his trees posibly every year.
