Two days ago I returned from foreign bearing clean dry chile seeds, and was informed by USDA agents at SFO that since 30 January 2002 NO SEEDS of any sort are allowed entry into USA without accompanying phytosanitary certificate; and then they confiscated all my little seeds. Such a rule change was discussed on this list, and I thought it had been cancelled, but it seems it has been implemented, not cancelled. --- Brent
