I will posit there is a similar genetic defect that prevents people from enjoying NC BBQ (at least Western NC or 'Lexington Style' BBQ. I understand these mutations are located close to the genes that control other important cognitive traits.

I'm familiar with that defect it's a trade off I can live with. I mean really it's a gift, not only can I differentiate good southern BBQ from NC swill, I can walk and chew bubble gum at the same time, win win if you ask me.

Huh, smilies arent working so just know I'm grinning real big as I sip my Cheerwine while typing this.

I feel bad for you. To me, cilantro is a necessity to complete many dishes.

I hate it when I run out

I tend to grow my own so I have a constant supply of cilantro, oregano, basil, thyme, and rosemary.

Fresh herbs are the best...! But OMG, fresh rosemary is so strong. My wife made a crown rib roast, and the rosemary just over powered the flavor of the meat...! Still, bee's love a herb garden too. So, I grow it for them, as well as us...!

I do love fresh Rosemary, pretty fond of fresh Suzy as well.

We grow wild flowers along a fence line on our property just for the bees. Unclaimed woods are behind us so plenty of the seeds go over there as well. A friend from Illinois gave me some wild yellow violet starters so there are plenty of those in the woods as well.

It is raining here and I have already taken my wife for a nice lunch so time to kick back with some Art Pepper....Promises Kept: The Complete Artists House Recordings. Sipping some chai tea and about to do some work with a wood chisel and mallet. I need to be in the right mood for that.

I do love my Cheerwine, I don't live too far from Salisbury.

Growing up, though, I was a Sun Drop guy all the way.

Back on topic with "cilantro", there was a time when I couldn't walk into restaurant and find a dish that wasn't smothered in it because it was the spice du jour, every day.

I grow my own too but supply cannot keep up with demand.

When I searched, I found vague or conflicting information about this, so I decided to try for myself. Regarding the Psvane 6SN7 tubes with shouldered glass envelopes, they do fit in Lyr+ without a socket saver, but require a socket saver to fit in Freya+. The problem with Freya+ is not that the tube base is too wide, but that the glass envelope will foul the edge of the circular opening in the Freya+ case, preventing the tube from being fully inserted into the socket. With a socket saver measuring 26 mm high (excluding pins), the socket end of the socket saver will be roughly flush with the top of Freya+'s case. A shorter socket saver would probably work fine, if you could find such a thing.

There was initially some alarming popping from Freya+ but it resolved itself after a few minutes of warmup. Now I just have to figure out how to get the socket savers out of there someday.

But if your not up to good NC bbcue their is always the alternative:

I generally use long hemostats to remove socket savers if difficult to reach, a little heat shrink tubing over each jaw keeps from marring sockets.

It would be nice to post on topic and move food and other topics elsewhere.

in the past, this thread, unlike many others here on Head-Fi, has had a strong tendency to meander as Jason is often super busy developing new products, re-designing for continued production of existing products in the face of materials shortages and obsolescence by component manufacturers (NRND), etc.
