I guess I did open up a big can of cabbage here (BTW, Kraut is unprepared
cabbage) To the Federal Government, Kraut is usually clear, not white. If
the kraut is still green, then it hasn't been picked yet. I'm trying to
figure out how my District ties in with this? If the cabbage that the Kraut
comes from is actually grown along the bank of the Potomac River it could
very well be green. Here's why, Out in the mountains of Western Maryland and
West Virginia at the headwaters of the River, there are many copper mines of
which produce run off and when copper and mineral deposits oxidize, they turn
green, so with all of this stuff floating in this river anything growing
along it's upper banks would like have an unusually high amount of oxidized
copper in it just from the run off.
