No problem; I always really liked that article and especially that its points out the over-reliance on corn, wheat and rice. I know that North America's landscape is still relatively wild compared to say, Europe, but learning about animals like this locust really makes me wonder just how wild this place was at one time and how the various waves of settlers must have felt as they encountered the vastness of the continent and its flora and fauna.
