That's fine as far as it goes but it does put an emphasis on the tips
rather than the fundamentals, and some of the tips can be controversial
and misleading. In my opinion one has to have a balance between that
source and the printed matter as in reference books and to a certain
extent magazines. I would refer you to Graham Rice's mailing re. The
Kitchen Garden Magazine as that is the best current source that I know
of for in-depth information on all edibles. Allan
