Never saw this fascinating Monoku. Good one. Watermelon is a vegetable too. Most of us do not know the difference.)) So we blame big names for not knowing? A little humility on our part would be a welcome place. It's fun to learn but as adults, pointing a finger at those who do not know, otherwise are Mr or Mrs, Know It Alls, is unattractive. Best we point a finger at our own chest! Intellectual bullies! Panagiota

Ronald Reagan famously stated that ketchup is a vegetable, back in about 1981 or so -- b/c it has tomatoes in it. lol. Identity Crisis!! ~ Shawn the Shrink
