Something controversial or provocative about this subject Pesticide over-usage

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know: You can actually get a Bachelors Degree in Turfgrass Science. Don't believe me? I'll send you a picture of mine.

What do you like about this subject? I've always enjoyed the hidden challenges that many people take for granted. Lawns are not generally thought of as difficult, but there's so much more than what meets the eye.
