Plants of the World

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.
