Nor do we.  In reading labels and online descriptions, there is a large
difference in the formulation of the various probiotics.  Some claim to
have the four major types of bacteria.  Some have twelve types.  Some
claim to be slow release so that the pills have more than a 4% chance of
reaching the small intestine.  None of them seem to claim medical
approval.  Bottom line is that they probably do no harm -- except to the
pocket book.

Somehow, I am not surprised at that choice from you -- not something I
have ever seen on the menu other than at the Korean restaurant we went
to with you.

One of the meals we had on our Irish tour was at a higher class chain
(Radison or the like).  The guide warned us that the restaurant there
considered themselves "fine dining".  The servers were dressed in black
and white.  The service was *slow*.  It took 30 minutes for the bread to
arrive, and similar times on each following course.  Overall, I think
the meal consumed 2 1/2 hours.
