Hi Dominic, I really enjoyed reading your article on the four fruits which left me much more than a little homesick!! I used to teach Biology in a Hr. Sec. School in Arambol and as part of an activity we used to take the students to the hills behind the school to teach them about the interaction between the native plants and and animals-seed dispersion etc...however I usually came back from those trips learning much more from them -local knowledge which you hardly find in textbooks and a bag full of all the fruit you mentioned !!! I remember as a child though my parents always cautioned me about drinking water before (or was it after?!) eating zamblams---is there any thing to that ?I'd like to know.... I think I was too chicken to try out!!
Bye for now Daphne
