Jeff, I think your post is a real lemon. It's cherry irrelevant. There seems to be no raisin for it. Orange you taking the list on a tangerinent? Are you going bananas? Can a mango somewhere else for supporting evidence? Maybe if we do some real pearwise comparisons, your opinion would be found to have more weight. It would be grape if you could provide us with some juicy references. Let's only continue this lime of discussion if it really has applecability to our list. OK? And I suggest that we include tropical as well as temperate fruits to avoid any eurocentric biases. Nancy Melonucci Torrance, CA
