Carolyn-- excellent information on cracking & splitting, and also about seed vendors. In years past, I’ve always enjoyed reading your posts on Gardenweb. You, and Dave (digdirt), provided a wealth of knowledge on that board!



Going back to Asimov -- Foundation is the best sci-fi series ever in my opinion. A true classic / ’Intelligent science fiction.’ If you have all the volumes on your shelf, it’s a must-read…or re-read, haha :-) My favorite part is ‘The Mule’ and everything thereafter. Continuing on to the forth volume, Foundations Edge (1982) is just as good as the original trilogy in my opinion. And if you find a copy of The End of Eternity, it’s definitely worth reading…on time travel…very clever and different from his other works… I consider it Asimov’s best stand-alone novel. I also enjoy Clarke, Niven, Douglas Adams, Heinlein….and I’m currently reading Tolkien.
