I should add that we'd all be better off if we ate more walnuts. The
omega-3 oil they contain (same as oil from cold-water fishes) is one
protection against heart disease. Well and truly documented by solid
scientific studies here and abroad. Eat a handful a day; live until
something else kills you. Of course, drinking that Lake county wine is
proving to be beneficial too.
