Neither do we....

I remember the Russel Sage ladies. A man wouldn't have to dress in drag to pass as a "Womyn" there...

What years? I was at RPI from 90-96 then spent another year living in Troy while working in Schenectady.

-Blast

Know what they call girls from Troy- Troilets
Living in Troy and commuting to Schenectady is analogous to living in purgatory and commuting to hell.

I started in 1982, finished in '88 cuz I couldn't drag my feet on the thesis any longer than that-lived and worked in the greater capitol district from 1949 to 1998-Ellis Hospital, Albany Med, Cobleskill, Amsterdam, Gloversville- typical nomadic ER nurse.

Great blog! I've been yearning to learn edible plants for some time now, and it just doesn't seem like there are any good web resources that did as well as you to provide the salient info in such a nice, compact way. Bravo!

P.s. Just be sure NOT to include making spruce bough tea...because, y'know, that would involve cutting live boughs off a tree. And we all know what happens when you suggest that...

Roots, never. But the inner tubers are delicious! My DD (who is very picky eater) called it "sweet lettuce". Cattails are awesome. How many other plants can give you tinder, flour, shelter, food, stuffing for a pillow, etc. all at once???
