=========================
On 11-25-07 GLEN JAMIESON Scribbled to DAVE DRUM about OVERHEAD SUNLIGHT 

GJ> GJ>What works best is Polaroid sunglasses, as the light reflected
GJ> GJ>from sloping windows, like that reflected from water, is quite
GJ> GJ>highly polarised.

GJ> DD> My luck is that the light would be polarised to the same

GJ>Sunlight reflected from water or windows sloping at an angle from the
GJ>horizontal is always horizontally polarised, therefore anti-glare sun
GJ>glasses designed to be used to overcame that form of glare are
GJ>vertically polarised.  If you have any, try the 90 degree rotation
GJ>test, looking at the glare reflected from the sea or car windows and
GJ>rotating the sunglasses, and you will see how effective they are.

That makes this a good day. I have learned something new (to me).

GJ> GJ> DD> I think Mr Gore was right. Global Warming is a fact. 

GJ> GJ>Prepare to plant your bananas.

GJ> DD> I'se 'lergic to nanners. Cause great, whacking, red, bumpy,

GJ>Poor fellow!  Plant pineapples, persimmons, pomegranates, pawpaws,
GJ>prickly pear, and peyote instead.

's all right. I don't much like banananananas, anyway.

I am not, however, allergic to pawpaw.

PAWPAW

Asimina triloba
Annonaceae

Common Name:Pawpaw, Paw Paw, Papaw, Poor Man's Banana, Hoosier Banana, 
etc. (In Australia the tropical papaya, Carica papaya, is also known as 
Pawpaw).

Related species: Asimina incarna, A. longifolia, A. obovata, A. 
parviflora, A. pygmaea, A. reticulata, A. tetramera, A. X nashii. These 
eight Asimina species grow in the southeastern United States.

Distant Affinity: Cherimoya (Annona cherimola), Soursop (Annona 
muricata), Custard Apple (Annona reticulata), Sugar Apple, Sweetsop 
(Annona squamosa), Atemoya (Annona squamosa X A. cherimola).

Origin: The pawpaw is native to the temperate woodlands of the eastern 
U.S. The American Indian is credited with spreading the pawpaw across 
the eastern U.S. to eastern Kansas and Texas, and from the Great Lakes 
almost to the Gulf. Fossils prove the pawpaw is indigenous to the U.S.

Adaptation: The pawpaw is adapted to the humid continental climate of 
its native habitat. It is seldom found near the Atlantic or Gulf coasts. 
It requires a minimum of 400 hours of winter chill and at least 160 
frost-free days. Pawpaws appear to be sensitive to low humidities, dry 
winds and cool maritime summers. It has been successfully grown in parts 
of California and the Pacific Northwest that meet its growing 
requirements. It has grown well in the San Jose area (USDA Climate Zone 
9 or Sunset Climate Zone 15). The climatic conditions of Southern 
California make growing the pawpaw there more difficult. The deep winter 
dormancy of the tree makes it highly frost tolerant, withstanding 
temperatures of -25° F or lower (hardy to USDA Climate Zone 5). Pawpaws 
can be grown as container specimens, although this is not often 
practiced. A deep pot is needed to accommodate the root system.
