I wanted to say thank you for this one in particular as it is very good. Also thanks for the honest assessment of the Tofutti cream cheese.

Apparently one taste salty and sugary flavors a lot less, but acid stays stable. So, for example, melon tastes mealy, but tomato juice tastes great. White wine tastes too acidic, but red wine can be very good. I think it was predominantly the altitude–I found a translation of the article that ran in the German media at this link.

I had no idea that it mattered -- did they say whether it was the altitude or the humidity that did it, or how they each affect your perception? Oh, interesting, about taste.

From repurposed plastic bottles by Borealis http://borealnemeton.org/tasty-food/planters-from-repurposed-plastic-bottles/comment-page-1#comment-35 Borealis Fri, 09 Apr 2010 19:17:51 +0000 http://borealnemeton.org/?p=160#comment-35 Thanks for the compliment on my writing style, but what visuals do you think this post is missing? Or were you referring to the blog more generally? Some of the posts had visuals that broke when I recently transferred to new hosting, and I haven't fixed them yet.

Getting to honk at someone boosts their ego and makes them feel praised. It is a way of showing contempt and condescension against cyclists, with the mentality of, "I'm driving an expensive vehicle and your riding on some cheap shit, so get out of my way, you turd."

The mill is definitely *not* burned down. As I recall, I read in one of my guidebooks that the green paint had been applied to the tombstone by a Hollywood film crew some years back, but I don't know that story at all. CB:

Baker Mon, 27 Jul 2009 21:47:16 +0000 http://borealnemeton.org/?p=15#comment-6 First was shown the Wall St. mill as a kid about 1970 by two old men that used to know Bill Keys. They'd mined with him some as I recall. There were still clothes in drawers and dishes in the kitchen in the house by the mill. Is the house still there? Went there again w/friends a few times more in the '70s when you could still drive to the site. Your pictures brought back memories and relief - I'd been told years ago that the mill had burned down. The words on the Worth Bagley monument have been painted green - it wasn't that way originally or the last time I saw it 30-odd years ago. Thanks again.
