This past winter, they found a one-of-a-kind plant in the Presidio that was thought to be extinct. Today, gossip columnists in SF Gate complained that my agency spent "taxpayer dollars" to move it to a safer location."Money may not grow on trees, but it sure cost taxpayers a bundle to move a bush that was found growing in the path of the Doyle Drive rebuild."I cannot tell you how much this irks me. Check out the original article in the same paper, describing the botanist's joy of finding a plant thought utterly extinct for 60 years, just growing by the side of the Golden Gate Bridge. Funny how just a few months can change people.
I hope that little bush finds a new friend and makes lots of baby bushes for our roadside. San Francisco is a better place for it, and Matier and Ross can just suck it.
