I live for Sunday morning breakfasts at my favorite spot, the Muddy Brook Cafe in Pearl River. They serve the finest Celtic farmhouse breakfast including black and white pudding (if you don't know what it is - don't ask - but rest assured it's NOT dessert!) Huge rashers of bacon (not a speck of fat to be found anywhere..) they even bake their own soda brown bread and have baked beans if you wish, but not like those you're used to. These are the baked beans I used to pack in my suit cases by the dozen when I first moved to the USA and found I couldn't bear to live without. I love the fact that there's grilled tomatoes and HP brown sauce too. The staff are delightful Irish lasses sporting a thick Dublin brogue and quick to ensure that everything is perfect, even if your accent (like mine)... 11/21/2011

Here is a segment from 60 Minutes that I find so interesting that I havn't heard anything about.  You would think that something this big and promising would be front page news.  It makes me very skeptical of our government and big business. (ie. Who killed The Electric Car?)  Apparently there are some very big names behind this technology that have whole heartedly embraced it in a big way.  If this technology is viable and affordable, then it needs to get out in front of the public, not shrouded in some mystery as humbo jumbo.  Here is my little contribution in passing it on.
