Steve, Some times the only cure for stomach problems is to puke. Leaves a mess if you miss the toilet but it also leaves a distinct message.
Mike, You go ahead and puke if you need to. We'll clean it up. In William Saroyan's book My Name Is Aram, Aram, who's around 12 or 13, is sent to care for a sick relative. Before being given this honor he's questioned by the leader of the community about his rice cooking abilities. He replies that it's sometimes burnt, sometime's swill, and sometime's perfect. This is an acceptable answer and he gets the job. The forum is much the same but when it gets to be swill too often someone will eventually retch. Let's the rice cookers know swill all the time is unacceptable.
