Thanks for this recommendation. Its interest reminds me that HN is one of the better sites to browse, and the occasional, seemingly off-topic (non-tech) discussions can be pleasurable.<p>I'm perversely delighted that determined criminal gangs are associated with covertly reaping a fungus. Refreshingly not because the fungus is psychoactive, but because it has flavor derived value.<p>I know I shouldn't make light of criminal behavior that in the end, is destructive, but I would enjoy hearing the discussion about "What are you in for?" when these guys get apprehended. The topic probably would interest even hardened criminals. "You can make money doing that shit?"<p>Which Agency is responsible for enforcement? USDA? Are there dedicated fungus cops? Chasing fungus criminals in the great outdoors sounds like a terrific job.
