   I'd like to thank all the folks who replied after the hail storm
with condolences and offers of replacement plants.  I appreciate
the offers, but it looks like I won't be needing to start over after
all.
   When I went out to check this morning, every single chile that
was caught in the hail had new growth!  Not just the ones that
were "slightly maimed", but *every*  *single*  *one*!  The KT in 
a pot that had 80% of the leaves and 50% of the outer layer of
the branches has new growth popping out at virtually every node. 
The Francisca hab that was reduced to a stalk with half a leaf is
sporting fresh greenery.  I am astounded.
   I have to say that I am mighty impressed by the regenerative
capabilities of these babies.  The tomato plants, which seemed
to suffer less from the hail, have yet to show any signs of re-
cuperation.
   Again, I thank you all.

Scott... amazed and confused, for so long it's not true... KCK
