effect is positive. By my way of thinking,
every good deed is balanced out by something
bad, perhaps on the other side of the world,
perhaps in your neighborhood. It is ardently
to be hoped that the good will overbalance,
but the chance of it winning in a rout are
slim and none.

My response to that, as you might guess, falls outside the limits of
what the rules allow... I don't expect human good to overbalance, but
in the long run, Good will overcome.... and I'll not go into it further, unless you ok... ;)

Not in my lifetime, and we can dance around this
topic forever; I'm not bothered just so nobody
seriously brings up the G word.

Ah, but I did, actually... :) So I won't push it here...

I wonder why cars get citrusy. Was one of the
workers on the line drunk or something on the day
it was made?

We wondered about that issue, but never had a proper answer... it
appeared to be partly poor manufacture, but also a bit of poor design...
It had problems with leaking water in around the windshield from just
about the very day we picked it up from the dealer's... and it was
bought as a brand-new car....

Did the not completely reliable but it's all
we have Consumer's Reports say anything about
the issues?

Not that I recall.... it was a '82 Aries... 4-door sedan, manual transmission...

Plus the nutrients in mushrooms are harder to
get, because of their cell structure.

Better as an adjunct, than as the main attraction... ;)

Most of us get enough nutrition without
having to try to rely on mushrooms.

Exactly, so we can just enjoy them as mushrooms... ;)

We can enjoy iceberg lettuce in the same
way ... oh, wait ... .

Right.

... Technically horrible stuff, but somehow very tasty.

There are all kinds of such. Some are nutritional
nightmares as well.

And tasty anyway... (G)
