Dale,
Because of you 200,000 blind individuals were flooding the internet
trying to order butter... Nearly brought the system to its knees...
(LOL)
Take care my friend, we all need a good laugh from time to time to push
back the cold...

Ah, well I didn't get in quite that deep.
I just randomly selected Austin TX as a city. Whole Foods seemed
promising, who actually wants partial foods after all. I didn't expect,
well, I mean, doesn't butter come from a cow? isn't a cow more or less
organic?
Apologies to the list for drifting into a little levity and a little off
topic.
