A news site that wants me to "log on" just doesn't do
it for me so I'll pass.

Does anyone want to reveal the basic gist of the
article? Beyond that I guess I'll just never know
what remarkable brilliance the NY Slimes has to
offer.

Girl,

I am too busy to fill out all these time wasting forms upon forms upon forms
on the Internet. I have to fill all these urgent flask orders from Europe
and India and ship them out.

Busy, busy, busy, you know.

First couple paragraphs below. The reason for no nectar was new to
me. Basically, if there is no nectar, the bee moves on so there is
less chance of self-fertilization.

"In the botanical world, orchids are famed not only for their great
beauty, but also for their powers of deceit, well established as the
liars and cheats of the plant kingdom, making false promises of food,
drink and even sex to the bees and other pollinators flying by.

Many orchids have a sweetly alluring fragrance but not a drop of the
expected nectar. Others look and smell just like female bees,
attracting male bees that try hopelessly to mate with the blossom."

I don't normally "log on" to that site. I saw the article and looked up the
link to post here. As far as the NY Times in concerned, I happen to agree
with Ruth's assessment. We get a hard copy of the paper; need to know what
the enemy is up to, y'know. Also, best crosswords to do in ink.

BTW, You're (expletive deleted) welcome! (Don't blame me. Al started it in
abpo.)

Diana

Sue,

Hubba, hubba... I'd like your ID sweetie cakes.

Mick

Diana,

It's the thought that counts.

Mick

Kittypus??!! Aw, Diana!
