Hi Fritz, Thank you for contributing this account of Scotch Cap to Vol. 56!

I suppose there is a tendency to think of lighthouses just as saving lives, but sadly, it's sometimes the other way around:

"On April 1, 1946 at 2:18 a.m. disaster struck Scotch Cap. "Terrific roaring from ocean heard, followed immediately by terrific sea, top of which rose above cliff and struck station... The tsunami, believed to be 100 feet high, destroyed the entire station, killing all five Coast Guardsmen."

More like innocent bystanders. The cause of the tsunami still isn't clearly understood and the impact was more severe in Hawaii than at Scotch Cap with >150 fatalities -

There are some dramatic photos of the before and after at Scotch Cap and gruesome stories about finding the remains of the men manning the station scattered about the site.

I suspect this will be my sole contribution in the field of recipes. I thought recipes consisted of things like "cut small hole in cover and microwave 3 minutes".

Thanks Roger.

Thanks Sue

Experiments with Nettles as a Substitute for Cotton in WWI is PLOK

Clothing made from stinging-nettle fiber is about to hit the catwalk and an Italian fashion house has started to produce a range of nettle jeans and jackets.

Nettle plant can be differentiated from other plants through its leaves. The nettle leaf has an ovate shape with deeply serrated edges. These leaves also have long stinging hairs that inject chemicals into the skin when you accidentally touch or brush past them. These hairs often cause pain and inflammation in the affected area.

Nettle contains vitamins C and K, B vitamins, as well as minerals like calcium, magnesium and iron, to name a few. Nettles are rich in vitamins A, B2, C, D, and K and have important nutrients like antioxidants, amino acids and chlorophyll. They’re also a good source of calcium, potassium, iodine, manganese and iron.

These weeds have traditionally been used for urination problems and kidney stones, joint ailments and as a diuretic.

Thanks for the PL and the additional info, Craig!

Nettles are abundant in the forest preserve where I walk ( and which I avoid for good reason!). They grow 8 or 10 ft. high. The recent "eco" interest in nettle cloth that you mention caught my attention also, and made me think this would be an interesting read.
