Good point, wagga. What California needs is an official state microorganism!

Hey, put a giardia on the CA state flag since there ain't no more grizzlies!

Better yet, a cow in lieu of the bear, a giardia in lieu of the star, brown instead of green below the "cow," and "Happy Cow Lives in California Republic."


Journey well...
