And they recently moved hackberry trees to cannabaceae. I've been burning
it all winter in my woodstove but it hasn't improved my outlook noticeably.

Thanks to a suggestion on this forum, I ordered _Plants of the World, _by
Christenhusz, Fay, and Chase. Now I don't sleep any more, I just wallow in

this

magnificent tome. It's big, it's lushly illustrated, it's comprehensive,

and the

text is enlightening. There are even ribbons bound in so that you can mark
your place. It cost about $99 from the University of Chicago Press. I

suggest

you and your family live on beans for two weeks to save up for this book

and

light up your life. (You can even learn about beans from the book.)

Probably

I'm the last person to find out that hops and cannabis are related. There

are

ferns that are only one cell thick.
