G. L. Sicherman => ...decvax!sunybcs!gloria!colonel Aw, gimme a break, Kernel. :-) Garlic powder isn't much good for most things, but with this particular recipe (if you can call something that simple a recipe), you just can't get enough control by pressing a clove of garlic. Note regarding the previous recipe: I forgot to mention that a little salt goes well with the avocado and garlic "on the half shell." Speaking of pressing garlic, does anyone know of a decent garlic press? Do I have to go to Williams-Sonoma to find one that won't rust or lose its handles (as has happened repeatedly with the plastic handles on the press I got at Safeway)? My mother used to have (probably still does, for all I know) a cast-aluminum one that was a bit difficult to clean, since the strainer thingy doesn't pop out like the one I have does, but I've never seen anything of that quality in any of my kitchen-shopping forays. I'm just wondering whether they stopped making those things 25 years ago, or what.

Let him step to the music he hears, however measured or far away.
