I like spinach, then turnip. Didn't care for the collards my ma made, and never tried kale. You remember that guy Euell(sp?) Gibbons? He wrote a few books about collecting and cooking greens and weeds. I had one called "Stalking the Wild Asparagus." Everything he picked he'd soak in butter when cooking. Supposed to be in the "Health Book" genre, but I laughed when I saw a stick of butter in every recipe for dandelions, grasses, etc. Wasn't too surprised when he died fairly young of congestive heart failure. Now I like butter, but I don't want to eat a weed if it needs a stick of butter to make eatable. --Vic |

The common belief is that rigs and production platforms are fish factories and that's not the case at all. In fact, there is some evidence that the platforms may hurt the reproductive cycle because fish won't leave the vicinity of the structure to reproduce. That is by no means definitive, but tracking studies suggest that is the case with certain species - in particular red snapper. Having said that, certain types of reef fish thrive very nicely near the structures - species like grouper for example have actually had something of a resurgence because of the platforms. The other issue is exactly what kinds of fish are attracted to the platforms and what depths they can find shelter. For example, in the North Sea, they have found that creating shelters creates some habitat for cod fish, but that turns off other types of fish like haddock. Haddock like to hang along linear objects placed around the platforms, but that creates problems for cod. I know in California, they've done a lot of research on this and have developed some differing techniques depending on the dominant speices where the rig resides. As it's more economically feasible for the major oil companies to just leave the rigs in place rather than disassemble them, they need to show some sort of benefit from doing so and the exact benefit for leaving them in place has been hard to pin down. One interesting factoid is that the deep water rigs seem to attract pelagic species at a higher rate that originally expected. It's an interesting subject. |

That is by no means definitive, but tracking studies suggest that is the case with certain species - in particular red snapper. Having said that, certain types of reef fish thrive very nicely near the structures - species like grouper for example have actually had something of a resurgence because of the platforms. The other issue is exactly what kinds of fish are attracted to the platforms and what depths they can find shelter. For example, in the North Sea, they have found that creating shelters creates some habitat for cod fish, but that turns off other types of fish like haddock. Haddock like to hang along linear objects placed around the platforms, but that creates problems for cod. I know in California, they've done a lot of research on this and have developed some differing techniques depending on the dominant speices where the rig resides. As it's more economically feasible for the major oil companies to just leave the rigs in place rather than disassemble them, they need to show some sort of benefit from doing so and the exact benefit for leaving them in place has been hard to pin down. One interesting factoid is that the deep water rigs seem to attract pelagic species at a higher rate that originally expected. It's an interesting subject. It is.... and seems to be, basically, attraction vs. production. There doesn't seem to a single definitive answer.... and it is a question that encompasses all artificial reefs..... One of the curiosities about artificial reefs is height and staging. All those subway cars they dumped off New Jersey are providing some incredible data. |

Supposed to be in the "Health Book" genre, but I laughed when I saw a stick of butter in every recipe for dandelions, grasses, etc. Wasn't too surprised when he died fairly young of congestive heart failure. Now I like butter, but I don't want to eat a weed if it needs a stick of butter to make eatable. --Vic- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I like any kind of greens, my favorite is beet greens, and then collards, but only if they are cooked right. |

Lock unlocked Didn't you mean LHS is better than Franks? ;) LHS has no flavor and even less heat. ;) It is the one my mother uses. Now it is locked. Not Frank's - never tried it. Crystal is loaded with vinegar and lacks the flavor of LHS. Go get some Franks. Fry a batch of chicken wings, mix a quarter cup of melted butter with a half cup of Franks. Stir into the wings. Good stuff. -- ** Good Day! ** John H |
