Eh? Such harsh words for such a useful janitor. I certainly wouldn't call the 
MTS population I have an "infestation".

Maybe "we" should call the jury back in and take a vote. Send mail to 
<booth at frii_com> that indicates whether or not you like Malaysian Trumet Snails. 
Since this is an aquatic plants forum, please couch your response in the context 
of MTS in a planted tank. I don't give a rat's part-that-goes-over-the-fence- 
last about what stores may or may not think or how they muck up your oscar tank. 
A simple "MTS:yes" or "MTS:no" will suffice and won't cripple my ancient and 
humble 14.4 modem. Hold off on the elaborate and universally ignored sigs also. 
In the spirit of "we're all in this together", please vote only once. I'll post 
the results next week.
