From: "Wilbert Hetterscheid" hetter at worldonline.nl> on 2002.05.14 at 20:54:12(8779) You know guys, you ain't gonna win this one. I have an active research programme with somebody at Kew who analyses the scent of Amorphs. If there is no scent on A. sumawongii, how come we have a perfect gaschromatographic graph for it, complete with oligomethyl-oligosulphides, that provide for the horrendous stench (comparable e.g. to bulbifer and muelleri) and a touch of anise scent (which I noticed) and turned up in the graphs as a small peak of 4-methoxyphenethylalcohol, other wise known as "anise oil". Try to +More talk your way out of THAT one, you smarta...s !!!!!!!!!!

I guess Lord P. has some kind of hypersinsitivity to Amorph smells; some kind of special receptors binding a single molecule and creating an enthuthiastic storm between his his neurons..... Orinary people like us just have to freeze in admiration.... :o Bernhard. maybe truck with some kind of nose numbness :-( Dollbergen, Germany, approx. zone 6/7
