Sam is right. We need geographical perspective for material in Pomona to be
included, at least for grower experience submissions. Perhaps, some things
like book reviews could lack geography and not suffer.

As I replied to Sam offlist before I noticed the email had gone to the group,
the intent of the aside which suggested the option of minimal contact info
was to be inclusive and accomodating to those who have privacy concerns, Spam
concerns, etc. However, Sam's point is well-taken. For readers to
evaluate grower experience, geography is very important, so material should
at least have name and geographical information.

Hello, Anton. I'm helping Jaci as a gathering editor for next summer's
Pomona, and I'd like to suggest that we have at a minimum a person's
name and his/her city and state with the each of the emails, which helps
Pomona readers puts information and comments in perspective. What do
you think? -- Sam Brungardt, St. Paul, Minn.

There has been an excellent and informative thread here on elderberries
recently. The Fall issue is still looking a little thin, although many
thanks to those who have sent articles and information. I would like to
include parts of this elderberry discussion in the Fall Pomona, perhaps
with some additional material. If anyone objects to having their post
included, or if anyone has specific wishes regarding how (or if) their
contact information is displayed, please let me know either on or
off-list.

Thanks,

Anton

The red elderberry is one of those fruits that is edible, poison and
medicinal depending on which book you consult. Many old timers in these
parts (Utah) have been making and eating jelly from this fruit for some
150 years. Also, the elk on our mountains love them very much. I have
made and enjoyed wine from this fruit but there are caveats; pick the
berries VERY ripe and be careful with your consumption of mass
quantities. The fruit contains cyanogenic glucocides (scary huh?) and
the cyanide will definetely affect your metabolism. However you process
the fruit you will notice a bright yellow oily substance that comes to
the top that contains most of the cyan. Skim this off and throw away.
good luck, bob sorenson
