I've just posted the new WBC schedule that Jean sent me.

The topic for Dec. 1 is Corn and Jean has asked that you read the chapter
on corn from the Michael Pollan book. I found that it is available online
from his website. http://michaelpollan.com/omnivore_ excerpt.pdf
I recently discovered info about the explosive nature of Cornus canadensis
seeds. I thought it was a relatively new discovery but looking it up onle
I found this article from BEN back in 1998, adapted from a 1985 article:
