Since apparently I have for some reason upset Sherwin enough to be
personally attacked, does that mean I'm now part of the club? Cause I can't
afford a club membership just yet, not until farmer's market starts and I
get me some decent money coming in.

Don't take it personally, Lilah. Consider the source. sherwin is a
bit like a wounded animal that will bite and snap at those trying to
help it.
And yes, I would say that you are now a part of the club, The "You
People" Little Group....welcome!

Thanks. I have no problem not taking it personally since I can't understand
them. I had posted 3 times in the Dr. Schwarcz Replies thread, 1st asking
who Dr. Schwarcz was, 2nd quoting Mark Twain, and 3rd expressing disbelief
that someone would think scientists don't have to back up their
statements(when they are saying them in an 'official' capacity) with
facts/evidence. Somehow that warrants calling me an illiterate hermit. "Does
not compute! Does not compute!" And I just finished a sandwich with lettuce
I harvested 'bout 10minutes ago from my yard. And one of my Golden Midget
Watermelon seeds has sprouted :-) So is the quinoa and amaranth.

I've got both about but do no grow it. Found both to be interesting
instead of rice yadayada.
Quinona more common the other harder to find.

You growing such foodstuffs sounds neat.
Bill the amaranth is sort of like a free standing grain I sort of
recall. Aztec or Mayan heritage.

I believe amaranth is Aztec and quinoa is Incan. Not sure 'bout the amaranth
though. I hope they keep growing strong cause I would like to be able to
grow my own grain as well as fruits/veggies/herbs. Oh and I enjoyed a few
fresh strawberries as a side with my sandwich as well :-)
