Ah, yes. Crumpets for Colonists, the umbrella-organisation that also covers "Scones for Zealots", the "Just Say HooRye for the Mayflower"-expedition, as well as the infamous "Flapjack League" and their Muffin Brigade. Some bad recipes came out of their work, as we all remember.

We here in Europe realized everything had gone to the dogs when you guys had that tea-party in Boston and didn´t pour the milk in first. That´s where the rot set in.

A real Taoist can circle his hand above the cup and the tea will stir itself.

A real Taoist would understand that everything is as it already is, and finds that acceptable.

Absolutely not. The spoon must be made of silver, and no less than early 19th century. Preferably from before the Battle of Rorke´s Drift. Bad show. All went wrong from there on. And it must be an heirloom. Someone else´s, at a pinch, if one has come on hard times and all that, but it must be silver. If one can´t find a set, well, there´s just no helping some people.
