You simply have to convince the little devils to spit out their sand before you toss them in the pot. This doesn't require a degree in clam psychology. After you dig up the clams, let them sit in a bucket of clean seawater for a couple of hours, in which time, the clams will spit out most of their sand. WARNING - Do not let the clams see you putting the pot on the stove, they will become uncooperative and may even riot. Happy Clam Hunting Scott Howard Tektronix Inc.
