Gee. Thanks for the heads up. It is Long Island. Long Island, Rhode Island
(Roger Williams) it gets pretty confusing. But you have lived there for 22
years and it is no mystery to you. Do you know anything about the Newtown
Pippen, the Yellow Newtown Pippen or the Albemarle Pippen? Do you grow them?
The purported difference in looks and flavor is probably due to geography,
don't you think?

Never heard of Newtown RI. But of course I've only lived here 22 years.
