jOe,

Thanks for the info. Although, after reading your description, I am less
sure that I would buy any.  However, I guess that it is not much different
than boiling a turkey carcass to make turkey soup, a favorite of mine.
(I particularly like it with a little smoked hab powder.)

My question was also an allusion to a topic that went around the list 
some years ago, see     http://abarnhart.com/chile/info/terms.htm#kd

You see, that along one axis of chileadness there are

"the moderate persuasionists" <> the more extreme <> the knuckledraggers
