The message
from "Brian" contains these words:

'Smells' do linger in one's memory. The smell of differing
'grownups' made them identifiable~~especially if they were known for
sweets!!.

More than anything was the smell of Cedar wood, in the kindergarten,
after I had butchered dozens of pencils in the sharpener.

My kindergarten smelt of polish and boiled milk, when milk still had a
smell.

I can still remember the smell and taste of Klim made up too weak.
While I don't wake up in the middle of the night, screaming, when I
do, you get the idea. Back in the days and society where 4 year
olds were whipped by the teacher, we had a demonstration over it.
"Pl,ease, miss, could you make it full strength?" I can still
remember the expression of utter shock on her face - but she did
it, and it was thereafter merely disgusting.
