Calvin's Aji Amarillo, at least in the later stages, came from me.  I'm
gonna believe that the heat in his mix came from some of the other stuff
because the AA that I have (and have grown) is more akin to Scotts'
description (feisty bell).

It is a sad fact of chile pepper life, that there is not- nor likely to
*ever* be- consensus on what chile is called what.  It is more than
likely we all know several different types by AA.

Mine in the fields (just now getting ripe) are probably 5 to 6 inches
long, a somewhat round cross section almost an inch across, and only
moderate heat.
