Hi all.
First I want to introduce myself. I'm me, and I'm from
Indianapolis, IN. I live in a small apartment, chase storms, and eat hot
food. I have a degree in music composition, and work as a web/database
programmer/tech support guy for a small advertising agency. I've been
kinda lurking on the list for about 5 days, and it seems like a fun group.

I've never liked cranberry anything, especially cranberry sauce. But, I
like habaneros with citrusy/fruity sorts of things. Mangos and habaneros
work well together. And, perhaps a little smoky flavor might make
cranberries taste batter, so your chipotle idea might be a good one. Maybe
both habaneros and chipotles...
And, finally, has anyone tried gowing peppers indoors, hydropoinically, on
a small scale, and with artificial light?
