Adamantius sez:

>Hmmmm. Nuts technically aren't fruit; how to distinguish them from other
seeds? The fleshy seed of a tree, enclosed in a woody shell?

Actually, they ARE fruit, they're the interior of a fleshy fruiting body,
where, in this case, the interior of the seeds is eaten, rather than the
flesh of the fruit as in apples or peaches. And many people eat the inside
of apricot or peach seeds, despite the cyanide within them.

Shall I send you some fresh walnuts or hickory nuts, just off the tree, oh
UUY?

;-)

The World's Need

So many Gods, so many creeds,
So many paths that wind and wind,
When just the art of being kind
Is all this sad world needs.
