     Try to keep to the subject! Ever heard the term "limeys"? If you haven't, it refers to the english sailors in previous centuries being issued lime juice to prevent scurvy on long voyages. - The idea came from an educated man and showed that indeed potted citrus had some use. This coincided with an explosion of interest in orangeries in Europe beyond the traditional borders of citrus culture.- Somewhat similar to the aims of Nafex?
 
    If someone wants to know something and you think that you have moved beyond this then all you have to do is ignore it and read what does interest you. We all started out screaming for food and crapping ourselves . If someone hadn't responded then I sincerely doubt that any of us would be around today to criticize others.
