Yes I share your enthusiasm for a few reasons...it uses brackish vs. potable water, has astonishing yields per acre, would not add nutrient flows to rivers and worsen those very disturbing (growing) "dead zones" in the Gulf where much of our seafood comes from and that wildlife depends on, plus yields proteins consumable by livestock and people. Leftover organic matter should make an excellent soil amendment too.
