    I was aquainted with the banana slug in the early 70s
    when I spent a month travelling up and down the coasts
    of Washington and Ori-gun.

    I think that is is cool for UC Santa Cruz to have it as a mascot,
    although it is hard to imagine a "fighting banana slug."

    Absolutely no disrespect to the majestic Banana slug or John Travolta, but I am more of a Blue Dragon (Glaucus atlanticus) guy myself.
