2/8     Anybody tried mailing seeds outside the country?  Do most countries
        allow this?  I'm sending some seeds to Tunisia, but I'm asking about
        this in general.  Thanks.
        \_ I don't know about shipping seeds out of the country, but I
           have received seeds from out of the country (Chile) just fine.
           \_ most countries will have SERIOUS problem when they got seeds
                from foreign country.  The proper route is to go through
                custom, and it WILL take forever. When you sending the seeds
                out, I doubt U.S. is going to have problem with that, but you
                better check on Tunisia.
                \_ Agree that the legal way is to go through customs.
                   But, I would sooner just send them in a regular
                   envelope, and take my chances.  How are you going to
                   contact the Tunisia plant permit people, anyway?
           \_ I also received seeds just fine from the Netherlands. How
              will anyone know there are seeds in there unless you're
              sending enough for them to sow a whole field? --dim

        \_ I am shocked, *SHOCKED* that the NSA spies on foreign and US
           citizens and foreign governments. This Snowden guy must have
           been born yesterday to think he is revealing anything of import.
           \_ Most people seem to have been surprised by this.

           but I guess that makes as much sense anything else.

5/16    Can anyone tell me what Greece is hoping for by rejecting austerity?
        From here it seems like the austerity is a pretty generous attempt
        to keep Greece from imploding entirely.   Are they hoping the
        Germans will put them on eternal state welfare, or what?
        Also, why would an outright default mean they must leave the Euro?
        Is it just that they won't be able to pay basic gvmt services

2/26    I have dual citizenship. If I leave US and enter country Z, is
        there a way I can make the immigration booth "stamp" both passports
        (not necessarily stamp, but electronically record) such that both
        countries know that I left US for country Z. Then, when I depart
        country Z and head back to US, only provide the US passport? I'd
        like to do this so country Z thinks that I am permanently residing
