[Sca-cooks] *Sigh* That tomato thing - again

[Terry Decker]

The individual had the the time frame right, but assumed common use rather 
than botanical specimen.  The fact was presented as a one liner with no 
relation to the paper being given.  It appeared to have been tossed in to 
show the author's superior research.

At the same event, I presented one of my stock papers--on the history of 
potatoes.

Potatoes now that's one I hear a lot lol (and yes Bear I know you do as
well since we are in the same area). Frankly I have not heard the
tomatoes issue except here on this list.

I still question
how
far I can trust the accuracy of an individual who threw an off-hand but
incorrect remark about potatoes into a paper on furnishings.
