NOt my theory, Dr bill, just a pargraph or two in the science section of the NYtimes, that caught my eye, and my fancy...

how much easier to understand, women finding huge fields of wheat, and then figuring out a way to trick the men into remaining there cultivating the crop.. What could they use to induce them? sex? well for a while, but then the women would get pregnant, and have kids.. no, a steady supply of wheat, to feed woman and growing children would be no great inducement to give up their rambling days.. but beer.. if women and there wheat, could be made into bread, and then beer... there was an eternal, unwavering attaction!

(12 oz of beer has same nutrictional value as 2 slices of bread.. about the same calories too. )


my other obsession
