==================
 BF>> I don't mind paying a little extra for better quality.

 DD> If you just need quick calories there is always Mickey D's or its
 DD> equivalent.

What is Mickey D? McDonald's...?

 BF>> Right now we gorged (is that the right word..?) on some fresh shrimps,
 BF>> only a day old and they are naturally more expensive than frozen but they
 BF>> do taste like shrimps.

 DD> If you meant "We ate like gluttons" the gorged is the correct word.

Ehhh....then I mean "enjoyed".

 BF>> Some day this week we'll go out to Lysekil (where I was born) visit my
 BF>> fathers grave and buy shrimps directly from the boat and a crab or two.

 DD> There is a big difference between seafood where I live (about 1500 km from
 DD> the nearest seashore) and the stuff fresh from the boat. If I ever move
 DD> from here I will likely go to the Seattle are (where Hap is) or just north
 DD> of the to Vancouver, BC in Canadia - both for the mild climate and for the
 DD> access to all that wonderful fresh seafood ... especially Dungeness crab.

Nothing goes up against sea food directly from the boat, only a couple of
hours old.

 DD> The only Swedish beer I am familiar with is Pripps Blue - which is sort of
 DD> a middle of the road lager. OK, but, better is available most places.

It's only foreingers and winoes that drink that stuff....the rest of us drink
beer
from smaller breweries and Pripps is owned by Carlsberg.

 DD>> So, don't settle for second best. You deserve better!

 BF>> I think so too. The less use of chemicals the better.

 DD> I'm not against chemical just because they are chemicals. I _AM_ against
 DD> chemicals used in place of doing thing right. Especially when the
 DD> chemicals will cause other problems further down the road.

I agree.
