Your increase in knowledge of the FSM since a prior occasion when it was discussed is commendable. I'd suggest due care be taken when considering delving into deeper pastifarian knowledge.

May be due to exposute to too much Olive Oil, but probably not. Rice Bran Oil seems to be a good enough [tm] substitute for Olive in many applications. It also has the advantage of being far cheaper, as most peopl= e seem to be wary of anyone who claims to be able to extract oil from rice. As I noted recently, I saw Cobra oil advertised in Yogyakarta but didn't ge= t a chance to check it out. I'm not sure whether this would be first/cold press (ala Olive "extra virgin") or if it needs heat or solvents for extraction. I cam imagine the donor having a hissy fit at pressing time. I think that Pastafarians may get snaky if the use of Cobra oil was mooted.
