I was listening on that on my way to Boston the other day, it was pretty amusing.

I still can't figure out why they are so bad in MD but not in VA. It should be crazy down here too, but I still have yet to see one in state. I'll be heading up to Alexandria within the next couple days, so I'll see if they are around there. My father tells me they are getting bad around Mt. Vernon.

$1000 for a blue eyed cicada, eh? I might have to go to MD to try to find one.

EDIT: I just googled "blue cicada" and came up with this:

Damn.

EDIT 2: OK, I just found out why they aren't in VA. They aren't due around here.
