Order a truckload of walnuts, and you’ll save a life! An unplowed domestic field of mystification in the spirit of Dr. Malcolm’s statement from Jurassic Park: “Life finds a way.” The most significant impact comes from the North Bohemian brown coal basin on Uncle Nedbal. Give him quinine! If that poor soul is still breathing, then it’s all good. ()
