Good article and descriptions. Although I can toss in another group or two into the list, overall a nicely done piece.

This one goes into my book marks page.

OK, I have assigned Libervis to the Non-Categorized category.

TC -

Is that Non-Categorized section a), ie, I won't be categorized because I said so;

b) I won't be categorized because I'm not interesting enough to categorize, or

c) I won't be categorized because there's a wonderful schedule of really riveting reality TV on tonight (Thank you, writers, for going on strike so that we may have this incredible windfall of American Gladiators and lie detectors and stuff) that you don't wish to be torn away from long enough to categorize me?

yuh, from D.s self description, I would rather not be in a position of being a landing pad in case someone knocks him from the top of the list.

You can run. You can hide.

But you cannot turn celery into a mainstream transportation medium for the 21st century.

There's a bunch of Ethanol lobbyists who would pay well to disagree...

Why not? It's biological. Im sure it can be turned into *some* form of alcohol :-)

Exactly, why the hell not? We here in Central Europe are able to produce bimber from any biological material ;)

Hey guys, fuel is easy. I was talking about the transportation itself. So far, all known efforts to produce a practical CeleryMobile have fallen apart at the first sight of rabbits.

Ok, I'll admit I've heard of boats of papyrus, cars of plywood, motorcycles of 2x4s, but never a celery car.

All righty, then.

Shows what a genius I am!!!

With a little constructive prodding, I have predicted and caused to be created the first rabbit-proof CeleryMobile.

If I weren't so humble, my incredible greatness would border on the unbearable for all you little folks who must try to shine in my shadow.

Dino,

Where can I get a picture of you? I would like to paste you in under the front axle. :)

Please, you must make some effort to moderate your adoration.

But it'll take more celery to transport the celery, than the celery you're transporting.

(I'd love to see my 7th grade English teacher diagram THAT sentence!)

Not only that, the Rain in Spain stays mainly in the plains.

Or something like that.
