Angry Green Penis Weed

OK, tell me this isn't a strange coincidence.

Less than week after visiting Scbadiver's (AKA Mr. Green Penis Weed) house for the Christmas Party my wife noticed a single stalk of GPW in my tank. I plucked it with a tweezers and within two weeks two more stalks grew up in its place! I plucked those two stalks a few weeks ago. Last night I notice that it grew back now three stalks strong.

Just to be clear, I have never had GPW in any of my tanks throughout 8 years in this hobby. Prior to first noticing the GPW I hadn't added a new frag or coral in probably three months. Robbie and I did not trade any frags or anything, I never even put a finger in his tank.

All this has led me to one solid and irrefutable conclusion:

Robbie's whole house is infected with Green Penis Weed!

The evil penis weed has evolved and went airborne! There is no stopping its spread now. The evil penis spores must have settled on my arm just waiting for the next time I put my hand in my tank so they could spread their penis infection to the next host.

But seriously, it there any other way to deal with this stuff? I have no idea where I got it but it doesn't seem to respond to simple pruning. I don't want to see it get out of control.
