[Growwine] Interesting article re: grapes vs tree fruits in the Okanagan

[Lon J. Rombough]

How about making use of the brainpower here to help?  I'm not in 
Canada, so I can't do it.

Collect up as many possible apple products as possible, find 
large-scale recipes for them.  Then prepare a good introductory letter. 
  Now, combine all that and mail it to the author of the original 
article and the publication it appeared in,  all the growers' groups, 
processors, and appropriate governmental agencies.
Maybe nothing would happen, maybe it would.  Total time spent, using 
e-mail, probably wouldn't be more than a few hours and it MIGHT 
actually help.
Maybe I'm oversimplifying this, but sometimes a nudge is all it takes.
