The Ann Arbor Chronicle covered this trial:

if you want to read something other than a mini-summary, there’s lots of detail there to look at to draw your own conclusion.

Judges and police
working on cases like these
leave the people in the freeze
let the rich steel all the cheese
get a brother to his knees

I love this because I have several neighbors who know far more than god does about their lawn. Should a leaf fall, they shall know it. Their eyes are on the sparrow returning it to whence it came should it alight. They systematically removed old, beautiful trees and bathe their lawns in the electric green glow of “Green Peace”–global security for your yard. I think all that neurotoxin has done its work! Living lawns are so much more beautiful. They are full of delight. All kinds of things to see. Still, I’d be somewhat sad to see my neighbors stop obsessing about their lawns.

Well, even though not environmentally friendly, I can understand the desire to have a pristine lawn free of weeds. It looks great! It is surely not environmentally friendly though.

Prof. Turley surely you get someone to mow your lawn for you. It’s only ~ $35/every 2 weeks in the summer.
