1) [Cue Homer Simpson voice] Mmmmmmmmm... key... lime... pie!
2) It's really worth searching out a short story by John Collier entitled
"The Touch of Nutmeg Makes It." Most likely source is an omnibus volume of
his stories entitled "Fancies and Goodnights" which is (shamefully) out of
print, but (fortunately) available in many libraries. And second-hand
bookstores. (And if anyone buys it and doesn't like it, you may send it to me
and I will pay you whatever you paid for it. I already have a copy, but I can
always use extras to give away...) I won't divulge details except to say that
a) it's a really, really good story, and b) relevant to the topic at hand.
