I once interview a woman who had a job testing the freshness of stored apples. Her testing was to ensure that no atmosphere was present. she said the apples on the shelve stores today were probably a harvest from two or three years ago. Technology has probably advance 10 fold since I interviewed her in 1985.

An apple a day keep the doctor away.

A recent article in WSJ concerning the reversal on meat had a heading "A steak a day keeps the doctor away".

You get the feeling that someone is just playing with us?

Well I did agree with the auto tech guy that said they really do manufacture left hand money wrenches
