Re: Cimicifuga -> Actaea rename?

I checked at amazon.co.uk a while back and saw that the release date
was in early April (I forget the exact date), so I had my computer set
up to remind me when that date rolled around.  I went in and placed
an order that same day and got it about five days later.

I was pretty impressed with the turn-around time, especially since
I had other stuff in my order that isn't available here in the US.

That's what I did... It's not here yet.

Thanks!  I discovered the search link yesterday, but I kept getting Web
server errors and discounted it.  I've revisited it and it's definitely
a useful tool!
You'll find that inadequate server capacity often means you get these errors... try in the evening US time (night time in the UK - when no one in Britain is using it).
