    I must say that Delly's questions has sent a lot of us down the road for the quest of knowledge. Some of us may not know the answer but our search for the answer has open doors that we would not have otherwise opened. While the obvious answer can provide an easy end to the search, it is the sidebar answers that enrich our understanding of the world around us. I would not have known about isoamyl acetate, the mechanics of bee stings or the history of aircraft wings, the testing of respirators or a yummy flavoring. Well done Delly.
