Did you ever try bok choy cooked like that? I like to use small bok choys. And I use onion as well as garlic. And I like to season it with toasted sesame oil, preferably the kind with chili oil in it. Yum, yum. You are making me very hungry. The sauteed green veggies make an excellent topping for thick lentil soup, by the way. Thunderstorm coming, I can hear it rolling down the Blue Ridge Mountains. Sounds like giants bowling.

On another topic, we were talking about the kidney guy, K44B and whether or not he was Mark Barton, on the Myth thread today. I went back and downloaded all the thread, that's one place where the ten posts at a time feature on NewSI was useful. (It's also extremely useful on the Feelies thread, too, but I never use it on DAR, which I like to savor.) IceShark suggested that there is a good story there, one which might be worthy of a Pulitzer. Even if Barton really was K44B, to me that would only be a footnote in the real Barton story, so I don't plan on trying to write an expose on the kidney thread, myself. But it was weird, wondering whether if it were Barton, did he read all those stupid posts? I admired Stefan for trying to reason with him. I did try to suggest to him that he sell his stocks to meet his margin call, even at a loss, but it was apparent that either it was a very sick joke, or the guy was very rigid and maladaptive. It's freaky to think of a murderous lunatic, sitting in the dark reading all that taunting, what would that feel like? But what was he thinking would happen? Someone would post the secret of selling his kidney over the Internet? I still prefer to think it was a sick joke.
