Is this the same as Philippino "[url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ube"]Ube[/url]"? Sweet purple yams? [/quote] I don't know, but I've heard of purple sweet potatoes from South America, Hawaii and Okinawa and I wouldn't be surprised if they were related.

Nihil Obstat Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 [quote name='Laudate_Dominum' date='09 April 2010 - 03:51 PM' timestamp='1270846271' post='2090152'] I don't have the data with which to definitively define your pickiness, but I do believe in the possibility of such a definition. The number of edible plant and animal species on this planet is finite, and the number of combinations, although astronomically large, is not infinite. You might say, touche! but what of edible plant, animal, fungi and other unknown creatures that we could theoretically engineer thanks to biotech? Or what of all edible matter on all planets in the universe for all time? We'd be talking about an even more vast set of theoretical components that could be combined in an unfathomable number of ways, but then I must suggest that the combinatorial potentialities of all matter in the universe are ultimately finite, although probably uncountable. What about multiverse cosmologies? Still finite--and I'd have to play the old argument from authority. I would point out that people have been burned at the stake for, among other things, obstinately asserting the eternity and infinity of the universe (or multiverse); it is a denial of creation. Extrinsic aeviternity is kosher. But, if you could clarify your multiverse cosmology and reconcile it with Catholic theology and metaphysics I'd be open to accepting that you're not a picky eater, perhaps. [/quote] Due to time and resources I shall, for now, accept your point while not rescinding my own position. In time, I will be able to determine the object number of possible dishes in the universe, at which point we can, by a simple percentage, determine the pickiness of my eating habits.

A decent strike to the side of the neck (jugular, I believe) works to drop a person, I hear. That's all I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
