- <p> EUCALYPTUS SAPLINGS: just say no. New satellite photographs
- suggest that Mexico's marijuana growth is ten times as great
- as previous estimates. Trouble is, some of these pictures may
- lie. Mexican authorities say they have inspected several
- alleged pot fields and discovered not cannabis but hundreds of
- eucalyptus saplings. The Mexicans are annoyed not only by the
- inaccuracies but by the spy-in-the-sky snooping. "We would also
- like to know," says a Mexican drug official, "if they
- photographed Northern California."
