One doesn't always have to follow what one advocates, eh...?  Especially
among friends...  :)  

 ML> Gack. Cumin would be okay in such a dish. I was curious and
 ML> googled the appropriate terms and discovered that that great
 ML> god deems cumin and caraway to be worthy of synonymity in the
 ML> world of search engines. Also, the miracle of automated or
 ML> stupid-person encoding gives us results including "carseat."

"Did you intend 'caveat'?"  

 ML> The question that now comes to mind is is there a variety of
 ML> either cumin or caraway whose flavor is an unholy compromise
 ML> between the two?

One could well wonder.  Something neither fish nor fowl that is somehow
fishy or fowlish... ;)  but that could possibly explain the confusion
between the two...  

 ML> 1 Tb fennel seeds
 ML> 1 Tb anise seeds
 ML> 1 Tb caraway seeds
 ML> 1 Tb coriander seeds
 ML> 2 ts cumin seeds
 ML> 1 clove
 ML> 1 cardamom pod
 ML> 1 ts ground cinnamon
 ML> 2 oz sugar
 ML> 2 oz salt
 ML> 2 ts fresh cracked black pepper

Interesting mix of spices...  is that actually authentically
Moroccan...?
