No.  It was Hudson's Golden Gem.  I remembered a few other causualites. 
Holstein is gone due to water core.  Most of the Jefferis has also been
thinned out.  There was nothing wrong with Jefferis, just that I could
have more flavorful apples in another week.  I find that I value "mild"
less as I get older.  Maybe the tired, old taste-buds need a little more
kick to register....who knows.

I see from your next post that you figured this out.  I try to keep the
units consistant ($US/ft and $Can/meter).
