and with this solution you can also hide that you are using something
*gasp* ... French.


I *have* found it deeply disturbing that I actually like something made by
the French.

I've been able to justify it thusly: St. Benedict was Italian. Therefore
the Benedictine monks who brew the wicked potion called Green Chartreuse
are, in fact, Italian, regardless of where they currently reside.

:-)

(BTW: My Dad discovered the stuff when he was stationed in France in World
War II. From the time I turned 21 until he died in 1993, he would bring
out a thimble-full of the stuff on special occasions. For some reason, even
though it tastes a lot like Jet-A, I learned to like the stuff.... Although
you can only take it in small doses. )
