Thank you Lord of the fiefdom. I think I will start with the Poluljuta Kavardzik, Zelenikovska Slatka, Astrakhanski No. 628, Gun-szu-lin-szjao-la-dzjao, Tltostenna Dunajska Krajova, Paradicsomalauk Fe, Portokalova Feferonka, Kukurecanska, and Sitni Tupasto Kupasti. If I find my dog dead in the backyard this summer, I'll know what happened.

Lord Byron ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ From: "Frank Francisco" <francisco_@prodigy.net> Subject: [CH] Which is what? I call upon you mighty guru's of the great fiefdom of Chile Pepper. I see many names for peppers, but I'm sure these are some different names for the same pepper. For example, I find Chilipin, Chiltecepin, Chilitepen, Chilipeņo, Chilipiquin. Come on! Is Api Aji? What's a Bangalore Torpedo? Are Cayenne Long Hots the same as Long Slims? Is the Paper Dragon the same as the Thai Dragon? What's a NewMex 6-4L and what's the difference between a NewMex Big Jim and Joe E. Parker? What's a Praetermissum No. 33? Is there a 1,2,3, etc.? Does anybody know of a source for a standardized listing for pepper names?
