Nick just asked "how do you tell a yellow stainer from a field mushroom?"


Actually, telling one from a horse mushroom is harder, because the
latter stain yellow, too. But they do it slowly, and to a slightly
yellow colour, not quickly to a bright yellow.

But the list is crap. Some of those are lethal, but many are not,
and the list was clearly put together to look impressive. Typical
torygraph.
