It was a favorite with a Huey helicopter pilot friend of mine who always said if you wanted to fly helicopter you had to think helicopter, act helicopter, be helicopter, sleep helicopter (his bedsheets e always were a twisted mess)... Enjoy: : Fava Sunrise ++++++++++++++++: 3 qts of tequila 2 -3 fava beans, chopped beyond recognition 1 pt of brake fluid Triple Sec a couple anchovies or alewives, local market conditions will determine availability and price put in blender, rip it up good, strain the resulting NavGas thru cheesecloth and throw everything out but the remaining liquid. Light and toss down with the flame still flickering. This will heal you permanently, do not expect small inch-marks towards success. Next thing your remember you will be walking thru an airport in a large city you have never visited before. You will have assumed a new identity and a new engaging set of friends. Christmases will be bleak the first couple years as the memories fade but by then your old identity will be but a fever blister on a neuro synaptic connection.

Amen.. In a more serious light (huh?!?) - thanks, John Cottingham and Karin M. Beros, et al for all your research and experimentation. Have you ever thought of sending some of this stuff to the Frugal Gourmet (Jeff Smith)?. I would think he might be interested given his own background and our current interest in "healing" foods. And Anne Rutherford d' Newfoundland ... I agree,... why is there no dopamine in strawberries? Uff da natural law! regards, Don Anderson (aka Sand Rodent, more than a platypus, less than a morally comprehensible primate but ... still your friend and first cousin, a mammal)
