Last year I planted a six pack that was supposed to be Lemon Cucumbers
and they turned out to be Japanese Cucumbers. The year before I
bought a 6" pot with three plants that were supposed to be Yellow
Crookneck but one of them was a pale Patty Pan.

Most of the MDs I have been to have not read one journal article about
my illness yet they tell me that there is nothing physically wrong
with me. The one MD that did read some articles said that they were
all "bad science". When I asked him if that was because they
disagreed with his preconceived notions he had no answer.
