In the story: "The native of Japan and China was introduced in the United States in 1876 as an ornamental plant at the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition. It was widely touted as a way to control soil erosion, and during the 1930s and 1940s the Civilian Conservation Corps planted vast amounts of the vine."

Like, DUH!

Do you have any idea how many problems we have (bugs, plants, other non-native critters brought here) because of U.S. blundering?

Sheesh! Feds: stay out of way!
