If memory serves (and mine rarely does), Liz dubbed it "Earl Campbell" to 
convey the size of the fruit. They looked to be as big as this 
linebacker's thighs. Immense. Solid. Capable of inflicting permanent harm 
if one is so foolish as to attempt to go through, around, over, or under 
same.

I also 'spect that like me, Liz couldn't spell Costata Romanesco <bg>.

Catharine, hoping she got her facts straight but confident that Liz will 
correct her if not <VBG>
