Ah yes, citric. A weak organic tricarboxylic acid having the chemical formula C6H8O7. It occurs naturally in citrus fruits. In biochemistry, it is an intermediate in the citric acid cycle, which occurs in the metabolism of all aerobic organisms.
We mentioned Great Aunt Bessie recently, now whether she could be described as an aerobic organism is highly debatable, but acidic yes.
Waiting for Godot & salvation :-)
Why do doctors have to practice?
You'd think they'd have got it right by now
News just in : archaeologists have discovered the original stone tablet that Moses brought down from the mount. It lists all the ten biblical commandments, with a separate fragment that fits in at the bottom. It says : ".... pick any three."

Actually there was another lost piece at the bottom that said "None of the above"
But as we all know God was a doctor, as he said to Moses, keep taking the tablets.

.... that's MUCH different than what the National News was implying with their reporting right after the incident the other night!! I wonder if that is how 'fake news' gets started....sloppy fact checkers stopping at the first fact they find?
If you have half an hour ... and take malignant form.
Cheers, Mike.
This was waaay too deep for me to read last night, and not much better this morning.
I'm going to watch The Price Is Right to clear my mind.

@David's test results
Could have been slightly better news, couldn't it, but soooooooooooo happy that it wasn't worse :)
I am not at all surprised and entirely satisfied by these results.

And yes an orange freshly picked from a tree would by definition be ripe wouldn't it? So how old is this "fresh" orange juice by the time we buy in in the shop and open it at home? Without apparently any of the usual anti-ageing additives?
I don't know how far orange juice has to travel to London, but here's how it gets to the entire northeastern US in satisfactory time: Juice Train

Miserable old git
Patiently waiting for the asteroid with my name on it.
So she leaned out and picked one and ate it for breakfast one day
It's what I loved about Greece. It was the fig trees and their fruit that I plucked the most from though. I remember spending some time hoping to find guava trees like we had free access to when growing up, but came up empty handed unfortunately.
In my experience, the absolutely most sweetest and delicious oranges are green ones though. Not inside obviously. Outside. I'd not seen orange ones much at all until we lived in South Africa.

Oh yes! I believe I came across something about US oranges, yesterday, David. I posted it at boinc though. I was thinking of making a tidier titled link to it but it keeps going pear-shaped so I haven't even made a sprawling one.
News just in ... ".... pick any three."
Oh okay. For all time, or can you change them as needed?
Please wait here. Further instructions could pile up at any time. Thank you.

Hmmm. Room to move there I think. Clarity in language etc. The preceding "...." indicates unintelligible marks on the stone. You could insert for said ellipsis :
- in any 24 hour period
- for a given person
- unless you hold political office
- for everyone for all time ( except a certain maiden to be born in the painted isles very many centuries hence, will be known by name of Annie* )
Cheers, Mike.

Not sure if Annie did see her sister as the bane of her life. They usually had good ideas you see as in dig dig, trip, splat, ouch.
Now then "painted isles". This refers to the customs of the ancient English in Hibernia, Britannia, and Albion of painting their faces and bodies with Woad, and was used by historians of the 5th Century. I believe that Annie was not born in England but in another continent. And had it been just a few years earlier she would have been a tad more British born than she was.

If you take that last bit of "a few years earlier" and expand it 'a bit' then those of us across the pond would fit into that category too!
Well I wasn't born in England, but I was born in Britain, and come from English stock.
Originally there were 4 countries, England, Wales, Scotland, and Ireland.
England annexed Wales to become Britain, then they went into Union with Scotland to form Great Britain. later Ireland went it's own way and Northern Ireland decided to stay with GB. Hence the UK is now the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Commonly known geographically as the British Isles, and politically as the UK.

If anyone is interested ---> https://plantscientist.wordpress.com/2014/12/04/why-is-my-orange-green should stop you wondering whether you've just been ripped off with an extra large lime
