Vision, I’m sorry I forgot to check back in last night. We tuned out when Ivy started, and I didn’t come back to the thread.

On the ice cream, nothing changed my mind. I just read the recipe, and it sounds like ordinary vanilla ice cream. I still don’t know what the reason for adding olive oil is, though.

I didn’t hear the income tax reference, but back during and after WWII, income tax rates were obscenely high, over 90 percent for some people. Congress didn’t go along with it, but Roosevelt wanted 100 percent of incomes over 25-thousand. INSANE. What’s worse is that the Sixteenth Amendment (originally) did not include people’s paychecks. How we ended up here, working for the federal government with our salaries, is an evil story, indeed.

I hope you have a good week, Vision!
