So i suppose that if you were lacking distilled water, you might be
able to get away with a really stiff cup of tepid tea. Just so long
as it didn't have too many nutrients. Hmmm... I can see it now, "I'll
have a soda and my Darling. here will take an iced tea..." (Gotta
make cetain its roots keep cool!)
On a slightly different note: one of my friends was recently pondering
the lack of land-based filter-feeders. I tried to explain that i
thought the sundews and butterworts were an *excellent* example of
that. Alas, that was unsatisfactory though -- apparently not big
enough to be satisfactory. We'll have to work on that some more....
