#1 I have lived in Virginia, NC and in Kentucky but have never heard of cyanide fishing.

Maybe divers carry cyanide packets down and squirt the contents into the giant clams' intake siphon???

Err, maybe not....

#2 Fishing with poison is not a terribly new technique. I recall reading articles on how pre-industrial folks in South America do it.

Note that I'm not in a hurry to eat any seafood that was killed by cyanide...

#5 I thought Sulu's sideline was botany.

And twentieth-century firearms! Not too shabby for a guy born in San Francisco.
