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.

Frank,

Heres is most of them,  But Dave Dewitt say's that they add 250 to 350
varieties a year.

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?
