Thanks.

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

The Asturian and the Russian Wikipedias credit Carlos Magdalena with categorizing a water plant as the new species Victoria boliviana, classified incorrectly as Victoria amazonica 179 years ago!

This reclassification emerged in 2022, after The Plant Messiah.

Magdalena devoted 20 years to detailing Victoria amazonica in the Royal Botanic collection before deeming the original incorrect.

Does The Plant Messiah harbor any of his interactions with Victoria amazonica that entailed its name change 2 years ago?

It is impossible to say.

That those on "the other side" care for those on "this side" connects with those on "this side" caring about those on "the other side."

Bela Bartok considered that he expected to unpack his suitcases -- of things to do -- before his death even as life did not allow him to do so.

Does "the other side" giving us a death date, such as in the redcoat having time before Ticonderoga, aim in part for us to get done some if not all of what we'd like to get done?

Or would such practicalities perhaps not enter at all?

Customers commercing or consuming smuggled brandy, coffee and tea perhaps concerned themselves about something cautioning authority figures of their non-legal origins.

Or did the clientele of smuggled commerce only concern themselves with not being caught at the place and the time of smuggled brandy, coffee, tea changing from smuggler hands?
