Better read "The Stinky Cheese Man" for sure.  Interesting that 
strong cheeses mellow a bit when they are heated.  I'm thinking of a 
Swiss cheese called raclette, which I can't abide cold and raw.  It's 
used by heating the surface (in front of a roaring fire or with an 
electric raclette cooker) and scraping off the melted cheese onto 
potatoes or another bland food.  I think it loses some ammonia, and 
the warm goo is splendid.  Mmmmm, getting hungry.  I think Jahrlsburg 
is better in a melted state too.  Enough.

I planned events for a very early Sense of Smell Day in 1995, and it 
was a splendid event.  I've still got the T-shirt.  Jane

Science Outside the Box is a tiny business that celebrates the 
scientist in every one of us.  I am a writer and teacher, and I have 
fun with science every single day.  I'm especially fond of designing 
classes and science magic shows for kids and parents.
