Gerald, Thanks for the kind words... it made me feel better. Perhaps I shouldn't have replied to that e-mail in such a rude manner, but it just got to me that someone implied I was making assumptions. I realize I was wrong, but isn't that what this list is for? I figured that having the two versions was okay but I had no idea about the philosopher's stone being the British version. I thought that maybe someone had accidentally written the wrong word in the title so I thought I'd check with the list. Yes, I noticed the British terms and food discussion and actually, I found it to be very interesting. Again, thinks for the kind words.
