I'm not sure how I missed this yesterday.

14..Madison?

15..Columbia

16..They were little shelled creatures.  Fossils are found in rocks, the crushed shells are widely dispersed, whence you can buy diatomaceous earth as an organic flea killer (doesn't work in my experience)

19..It's a concert waltz by Johann Strauss Jr

23..Be warned, Chief, you did say "discuss."  The giant hogweed is a nasty plant native to Russia.  It has the nasty habit of secreting a chemical that's photo-activated.  If you touch it, your skin will break out in lesions if the sun hits those areas.  It was brought to the UK, IIRC by a Russian diplomat as a gift for the Queen and the Royal Gardens.  It spread rapidly, largely on purpose, and by the end of the 19th century was perceived as almost a plague.  Genssis did a song about the problems, with lines like "strike by night, they're defenseless, they all need the sun to photosynthesize their venom."  It's been in the news recently because it's been discovered in the US.
