Ok, I don't want to get off on a rant here, but I am.  So there.  Citrus 
Canker.  Now, I don't have any trees, but it just KILLS me to see peoples trees 
cut down because their citrus is "blotchy" not causing harm to the fruit itself, 
but making it ugly.  Bryan is right, most of the citrus here in Florida is 
used to make juice.  So, what's the point of spending all that money to invade 
people's property, have under-educated people to determine whether or not their 
citrus trees have canker, and then cut them down?  Arrggh!  I'm not well 
educated on the whole situation myself, but people are up in arms down here 
(literally, we had a client SHOOT at the canker checkers, and he subsequently was 
charged with attempted murder!  He really just shot UP not at, it was 
determined)  because of this crap.  Ok, I'm done.
