Hi Leo,
That's amazing. I am still laughing :) but I can appreciate the frustration
of the encounter. Especially considering not only the impossible growing
conditions at the site, but the fact that most bananas don't even set
viable seed even in ideal conditions.

As for the banana plants - the least parsimonious explanation is the
inspectors wanted the plants for themselves.
