Bernard, I had to look up what a harmonium is, but I do not think such a cross is possible...no hybrid vigor there. I think parsnips would be too inflexible to serve as bellows.

So much for my parsimony! That one word should mean one does not need to explain in length what it means.

No Bernard, parsimony is not the matrimony of parsnips; at least I do not think so.

Azizi: your efforts are laudable and it is obvious you are an intelligent woman. However, this forum is the "Wild West of the Internet" and the faster shooter wins. Best let Judge Roy Joe Bean and his clones do what they do best. So far, I have no complaints.
