Ooh, on the subject of corn...
To all you Brits (and any others), what
is corn? To me, corn is the vegetable
Morai was talking about. But I've heard rumors that it's something else in Europe? I know that the first settlers over here had no idea what the Indians were growing - now called maize, perhaps? I think it was a good bit smaller than the large sweet corn we've got now, but it's the same sort of thing. Do y'all have cornbread, for example?
Or maybe I've just managed to really confuse myself. It's not unprecedented.
