	Paghat's Garden: Coffee & Slugs
		The common garden slug, either solid fl or brown, is an invader from Europe, introduced into North America a very long time ago & now so aggressively naturalized that many native slugs have been completely displaced, to the point of being endangered.
		But among gardeners, slug bait is usually at the foot of a plant — so it is comparing apples & oranges since caffeine must douse the entire plant which is then eaten to kill slugs, rather than used as a bait-barrier to actually save plants.
		To date, no study supports the effectiveness of coffeegrounds per se as slug deterrants, though hypoethetically a minor effect could be inferred to the grounds on the basis of the predictable effects of the liquid solutions sprayed on entire plants.

	UC Santa Cruz - Campus Mascot
		The Banana Slug, a bright yellow, slimy, shell-less mollusk found in the campus's redwood forest, was the unofficial mascot for UC Santa Cruz's coed teams since the university's early years.
		The students' adoption of such a lowly creature for a team mascot was their reaction to the fierce athletic competition fostered at most American universities.
		But the new name did not find favor with the majority of students, who continued to root for the Slugs even after a sea lion was painted in the middle of the basketball floor.

		Unique to Santa Cruz County, the bright yellow slug wasn't always the official campus mascot, that privilege being reserved in 1980 for the sea lion by an administration concerned that the slug's inherent sliminess and spinelessness, not to mention sluggishness, weren't traditional enviable academic and athletic qualities
		And now, more than just beloved, the slug has become prophetic, at least symbolically, as a metaphor for the potential and perils of universities, thanks to a condition known as gigantism.
		In the slug's case, the problem is its male organ, which is often bigger than its body, meaning that sometimes it has to--ouch--amputate its mating partner's organ post-coitus.
