Jim West brought my attention on todays blog to the upcoming exhibition on the
DSS under the title "Pimping the DSS Scrolls through chocolate (see blurb
below) Whereas Southern Californians are not known for their good taste (sic)
this latest marketing ploy may amaze a few however I've long maintained that
the DSS are the poor mans ATM, need a few bucks, a grant, 'fame' and fortune,
become a overnight DSS scholar. I'm serious. No matter what you write, you will
find a publisher, a producer, can't find an expert, well there's always

What I find hilarious is that the chocolate is supposed to mimic flavors of the
region, seems no one minding the store is aware that that chocolate is a New
World product and those flavors from the IL sabra cactus, well folks, the
plant was imported from Mexico by the Palestinians in the 19th century for
fencing. This reminds me of the Essene Bread, which is sold in the US, from a
recipe evidently contained in the writings of the community, no one ever told
them it appears that 'man does not live by bread alone' as we recently found
evidence of beef tape worm in the latrines from Locus 51.
